HARVEY UPDYKE SIGHTING IN FRENCH QUARTER. WHAT IS HE TRYING TO POISON NOW?

Alabama fan Harvey Updyke, who became famous for his call in to the Paul Finebaum Radio Show, in which he proudly stated that he poisoned the beloved trees lining Toomer's Corner on the Auburn University campus has been seen walking the streets of the French Quarter this past weekend leading up to tonight's Alabama/LSU National Championship game.  The French Quarter is even a much bigger landmark than Toomer's Corner, and while enjoyed by sports fans of all types, I would definitley say that you will find more LSU fans occupying its streets year round than any other college team.  I'm sure after LSU defeated Alabama 9-6 in the regular season, Harvey Updyke felt like he had just been stabbed in the heart.  Should LSU fans and anybody else who has ever had a great time on Bouron Street and anywhere else in the French Quarter be concerned that Harvey Updyke has been spotted in possibly our nation's most famous neighborhood? 

Harvey Updyke has allegedly already destroyed a famous landmark in the trees at Toomer's Corner, just imagine what he could get his hands on in The French Quarter!  What is the French Quarter's greatest asset that should be protected at all costs while Harvey Updyke is roaming its streets?  The fine cuisine?  The Hurricanes and Hand Grenades?  The Street Jazz Bands?  Saint Louis Cathedral?  Or even worse, the stripper poles!  

Here is an article from Al.com about Harvey Updyke being sighted on Bourbon Street and fans getting their picture taken with him, which caused a backlash from Auburn fans that seemed to be calling into question the legitimacy behind the earlier renouncement of this actions by the Crimson Tide faithful in which the Alabama fans aggressively fired back. 

NEW ORLEANS -- The night before the BCS Championship rematch between Alabama and LSU, New Orleans' legendary party destination Bourbon Street has been awash with Tide and Tigers fans looking for a good time the night before the big game.
Among the Crimson Tide fans enjoying themselves tonight, none is more famous than Harvey Updyke, the Alabama fan who allegedly poisoned the legendary oaks at Toomer's Corner in Auburn, then bragged about it on the Paul Finebaum Radio Network.
