KLAQ BBQ: Dubba G's favorite BBQ Memory [VIDEO]

Dubba G — Fri, 31 Aug 2012 18:14:11 +0000

It was supposed to be like any other KLAQ BBQ. But .....

Hurricane Katrina had ravaged the gulf area and, with a nod to Zeppelin and The Tragically Hip, the levees had broken and New Orleans was (literally) sinking. That storm also pushed smaller storms with LOTS of rain as far inland as El Paso.

That's where the trouble started.
