Seriously, how much money did the Louisiana Seafood Promotion and Marketing Board get from BP? (Oh, $30 million?) The Board is apparently in talks with the New Orleans Hornets to use a portion of that money to re-dub the New Orleans Arena as the Louisiana Seafood Arena. As part of the deal, the Hornets would basically become ambassadors for Louisiana seafood, as cooking demos would follow the team to other NBA cities. [WWL via NoDef]
