Brantley remembers bars putting up DO NOT SERVE printouts with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodells face on them.
We were there to celebrate our team and what wed accomplished that year, Howell said.
It wasnt a sad celebration.
The Ravens won, but fans are still in the dark about what happened.
Locals, however, have no doubt: Entergy, the local power utility, screwed something up.
You know the Captain Picard facepalm meme?
Brantley says, laughing.
If you talk about the power outage, any local will just give you that and mutter Entergy.
But Brantley says his city is more than prepared for that.
