“THORNTON HEARS A WHO DAT"

On one of the rare days I was well enough to go to a game this winter, my photo was taken and used in an article on Hornets.com. I was holding up a super sign Larry made for Marcus Thornton, one of our two awesome rookies. Darren Collison is our other talented rook.

"WHO DAT", of course, is unique to New Orleans...as in "Who dat say dey gonna beat dem Saints?" Now, sports fans in New Orleans are known as the "Who Dat Nation".

Bob Licht used the pic in his "Bob Licht: In the Lane" column featuring his "In the Lane 2010 Awards". He had suggested the theme while chatting with us before one of the games and Larry had fun with it. He's so good at this!

Another of Larry signs, "BOWER-Y BOYZ", referring to Coach/GM Jeff Bower, came in 3rd.
