The New Orleans Saints will receive a $5 million windfall from state coffers as a reward for hosting the Super Bowl, under the terms of an agreement negotiated by Gov. Bobby Jindal and Tom Benson in 2009. The bonus comes on top of the $6 million the state is paying to support the Super Bowl Host Committee’s operations before and during the game.You'd think that maybe Mercedes-Benz could pick up the tab here... or is that not how these things work?
