Summary: When we interviewed Josh Peter in June of 2005, he was a sports writer for New Orleans daily newspaper, The Times Picayune. But as of August 29, when Hurricane Katrina roared ashore, Josh and every other reporter at the paper got a new assignment: Katrina coverage. Josh Peter has his old beat back now, but its different. Will New Orleans professional football team, The Saints, come back home? Will they play in the now-infamous Louisiana Superdome? Will the professional basketball franchise, The Hornets, be sold? What will happen to all the displaced high school and college athletes? So many questions in the wake of the storm. Joshs video is for the book with the longest title in our archives: Fried Twinkies, Buckle Bunnies Bull Riders: A Year Inside the Professional Bull Riders Tour. In our 2-minute video, Josh goes behind the chutes to get the inside story on an emerging sport. It captures this award-winning sportswriter at a time of innocence, what we call Pre-K down here.
