Not only that she got involved in the party atmosphere, but she would bring it to the office also.
Allegedly.

I'm not going to celebrate a man who would desert his home town, when they were at their lowest.
I believe Gayle is the catalyst that caused his filinthropic ventures.

The Saints were a joke when Mr Benson bought them. He hired the people to make them Champions. RIP Mr Benson

Benson was looking to move the Saints before Katrina ever hit. Attendance was slumping badly and he and San Antonio were already talking. Honestly what most people don't realize is that Katrina is what saved the Saints from leaving. Now, he still wanted to move forward with the move but Paul Tagliabue intervened, and the rest is history.
Say what you want now, but props to him for staying and building a powerhouse team instead of sitting back and putting out duds every year that could have hastened a later move.
RIP
