Strike up the band! Good news in New Orleans!When Kansas City got its AFL franchise, the Brigade, they replaced the New Orleans ballclub, the Voodoo. New Orleans was still reeling from Katrina and its associated flooding and the team needed a new home. It found one at Kemper Arena.
The Voodoo may have magically disappeared as the Big Easy got back on its feet, but it didn't stay gone long. The New Orleans franchise is apparently back in business, as evidenced by a recent article in the Bestrop Daily Enterprise.
That old black magic is back in the Crescent City, and Tom Benson's club is making a few moves.
"VOODOO HOPEFULS: Former Rams Carlos Stevens and Troy Mason have been invited to attend the New Orleans VooDoo tryout camp in January... Stevens, who played defensive end at Northwestern State, is trying out at linebacker. Mason, who played collegiately at UNLV, is a wide receiver."
