PICS: Patio buckles at New Orleans sports bar during packed Saints game
NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) – Wrong Iron, a popular sports bar in mid-city New Orleans, was forced to close on Sunday about halfway through the Saints-Eagles game when a portion of their outdoor patio buckled.
Staff say a brief period of rain forced the packed house of Saints fans to take cover inside and on the covered patio. The weight and bouncing of the excited fans caused a portion of the patio to buckle.
A large police, fire, and EMS presence was on the scene.
There is no word yet from officials on whether there were any injuries or not. A spokesperson for the fire department is en route to provide updates.
