It's my understanding that the NFL itself paid the majority of the refurbishing costs for the Superdome.

Also, there seemed to be a "don't get political" edict on the broadcast last night. Spike Lee even seemed to be muzzled. Interedtingly, GHW Bush was not booed, as I expected.

All in all, it was a true Disney production.

The owner of the Saints put up 15 million. The NFL put up zip. The rest came out of your pocket and mine.

Except for the $130 million FEMA ponied up, that is.
