How do you know this detail about Mayor Daley and Lott? What do you mean that Lott "crashed" the press conference? What was your connection with the University of Chicago?

Lott crashed a Daley press conference when he showed up and started heckling him during a press conference regarding the city's lawsuit against gun manufacturers. Maybe it was not the right time for him to attack Daley, but still Lott's point is well taken. Daley told Hugo Sonnenschein, the then President, that U of C will be in a whole lot of trouble if they decide to keep Lott. UC let him go and Yale picked him up. Loss for us, gain for them.
