Dirty Linen Night on Royal Street

From Dirty Linen

Dirty Linen Night is the French Quarter response to White Linen Night, which took place last week in the arts district of downtown New Orleans. Dirty Linen Night has taken place on Royal Street for the last nine years, and it has focused on the eclectic offerings which tourists and locals alike can only find in the historic Vieux Carre. The art in the French Quarter ranges from not to good to great, and everything from sculpture to live performance art was available fro viewing at Dirty Linen Night. Pictures from the French Quarter event can be seen here.

Saints Training Camp 2

Saints Training Camp

The Saints took to the field last Saturday, even with a heat index of 105 degrees. The team looked good during the annual Black and Gold scrimmage. While the defense looked as solid as ever, the first team offense spent much of the afternoon working out some kinks. The team has had a lot on its plate the last few months, and hopefully, now that the revelry of Super Bowl XLIV has subsided, we can get back to business.
