ABOUT WHAT’S HAPPENING AND WHY THIS DECISION WAS MADE. FLETCHER. YEAH, GOOD. GOOD MORNING. SORRY IT’S NOT AFTERNOON YET. GOOD MORNING. TRAVERS IN MORGAN. WE MADE IT HERE BECAUSE THE STATION IS LESS THAN TEN MINUTES AWAY. BUT YOU’RE RIGHT, IT IS ICY. THE PELICANS GAME AGAINST THE MILWAUKEE BUCKS TONIGHT. AS YOU ALL SAID EARLIER DURING THE BREAKING NEWS POSTPONED NO MAKEUP DATE HAS BEEN SET. THE NBA IS A LONG SEASON THAT DOESN’T END UNTIL THE SECOND WEEK OF APRIL, SO PLENTY OF TIME TO MAKE THAT GAME UP. AS YOU ALL SAID, THIS WAS THE SMART DECISION. IT’S NOT ABOUT PLAYER SAFETY. THERE’S HUNDREDS OF SUPPORT PERSONNEL THAT MAKE THESE GAMES HAPPEN. FANS GETTING HERE AGAIN, THIS ISN’T WHAT WE DEAL WITH HERE. SO PEOPLE ON THE STREETS TODAY, IT’S A LITTLE UNCOMFORTABLE. SO IT WAS THE RIGHT DECISION BY THE LEAGUE. LET ME JUST LAY GIVE YOU A LAY OF THE LAND. SET THE SCENE FOR YOU. WE’RE GOING TO PAN TO OUR RIGHT. THIS IS CHAMPION SQUARE RIGHT WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW. AND YOU CAN SEE THERE’S ACTUALLY WORKERS WORKING IN CHAMPION SQUARE BECAUSE THE SUPER BOWL WORK IS ONGOING. THERE’S PEOPLE HERE BUILDING THE INFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE BIG GAME, WHICH IS NOW JUST OVER TWO WEEKS AWAY. BUT CHAMPION SQUARE HASN’T BEEN PLOWED. WHAT YOU SEE RIGHT THERE IS JUST FROM TRAFFIC DRIVING THROUGH ALSO TO THE THE RAMPS FOR THE SMOOTHIE KING CENTER ARE ABOUT EIGHT INCHES DEEP OF SNOW. YOU CAN SEE THE STAIRCASE THAT LAWRENCE IS GOING TO ZOOM IN ON REALIZES THAT THAT’S HOW WORKERS AND FANS GET IN. I WALKED UP THOSE STEPS AND ALMOST HAD, YOU KNOW, A FALL BECAUSE IT IS A LITTLE TREACHEROUS. IT’S FRESH POWDER, SO TO SAY, AND IT’S ABOUT 6 OR 8IN DEEP. AND THEN HERE, LOOK, IF IF LAWRENCE WILL COME OVER TO HIS LEFT, YOU CAN SEE, I MEAN, LOOK, THE STREETS WE’RE ON DRIED. IT HASN’T BEEN PLOWED YET, SO THERE’S THERE’S FRESH SNOW AND AND IT’S MOSTLY TURNING TO ICE IN SOME AREAS, LIKE YOU ALL SAID. SO IT WAS DEFINITELY THE RIGHT DECISION TO CANCEL THE GAME HERE BECAUSE YEAH, THIS IS REALLY, REALLY SLICK ICE RIGHT NOW. AND IT GOES LIKE THAT ALL THE WAY UNTIL YOU GET TO LOYOLA. SO YES. SO THE PELICANS GAME HAS BEEN POSTPONED. ALSO ONE MORE SPORTS UPDATE. THE LSU GAME IN SOUTH CAROLINA SET FOR THURSDAY NIGHT HAS BEEN MOVED TO FRIDAY AFTERNOON BECAUSE THE LSU TIGERS ARE PROBABLY GOING TO HAVE PROBLEMS GETTING OUT TODAY. SO IT GIVES THEM SOME TIME. THEY CAN NOW TRAVEL TOMORROW, PLAY ON FRIDAY. SO THE PELICANS AND THE LSU WOMEN’S BASKETBALL TEAM BOTH GAMES POSTPONED BECAUSE OF THE BAYOU BLIZZARD. THE THE WINTER EXTREME WEATHER THAT WE ARE EXPERIENCING RIGHT NOW. TRAVIS AND MORGAN, BACK TO YOU. ALL RIGH
