A lot of people can stand to read this. Most are too young to remember the Jazz being in New Orleans. Read it before saying something ignorant please. Especially about how the Jazz was never supported in New Orleans.
But after that first season split between the Auditorium and Loyola -- where the NBA players association insisted that a towering net be placed on each side of the elevated court lest a player fall off -- the Jazz flourished at the Superdome, where league attendance records were routinely shattered despite the team's on-court inconsistencies.
Thank you kindly dudes and dudettes.
