*LAGNIAPPE
* Hubbell’s most vivid memory of the postseason victory that sent the Saints to Chicago for the NFC title game: “Hugging every person that walked past me after we won, grown men included.”

** Hubbell actually did meet Brees in a local Babies R Us store earlier this year. “I thanked him for everything he does for the community,” Hubbell said. “Much like Chris Paul and Mr. Shinn, Drew is an asset to our city.”

The six Hornets employees who participated in The Buzz are among about 50 full-time Hornets workers who are natives of Louisiana or Mississippi.
