Only if there is no choice. Right now the storm looks like it's slowing. Only a Saturday New Orleans evacuation would endanger the game. Game-day traffic and Hurricane traffic cannot co-exist. Reserved football hotel rooms would be given over to evacuees. It would be a mess. Let's hope for a Tuesday landfall somewhere in Texas.
As far west in Texas as possible. If this thing hits the state line, I'll be out of my house for a week due to flooding again. I am NOT looking forward to that.
Not only that but you have the visiting fans that would add extra people that if the storm sped up would have to be evaced. Some of which I am sure are flying into New Orleans or at least staying there.
