Anybody know if the Riverwalk O-store is affected by this disaster?

if it's close to the river, I imagine it's underwater. talk about a potential looting target.

glad someone posted this before i did ;)

i was thinking that would be such a temptation

Yeah....but I would venture that the people looting are more than likely more Nike fans than Oakley fans....it's tough to find a shoe that fits while your family is starving....but they seemed to have managed....

I hate looters (no wonder it rhymes with losers) I'd like to stand in front of the O-Store & sandpaper all the lenses as they ran out!

isn't there a webcam around the area ? normally i check at www.earthcam.com , but all their links do not work due to Katrina

I just can't get over the way, the people still stuck in New Orleans are carrying on....the reports were getting here in Australia is that it's basically decending into Anarchey! It's a hard enough situation as it is...why do so many have to make it worse.
Some Australians caught there have said that Surviving the Hurricane was nothing compared to surviving in the Skydome.

it is basically a nearly lawless city. the National Guard took way too long to get there, and people are doing whatever they can to survive. Looting is something that happens during these things.

anyone tried searching for the location under http://ngs.woc.noaa.gov/katrina/KATRINA0000.HTM

to see if it's flooded

after Hurricane Andrew, the CircleK by my house was looted and burned out. And they didn't have much left anyway.

yep that whole mall was underwater, it was at the end of canal street where a lot of the major flooding was/is

all that ruined Oakley stuff :(

yeah never mind the lost souls, save the O!

it was announced today that a plane load of volunteers has been sent over from liverpool to help with the looting....

sorry to joke about it but hey...

Some insurance company somewhere is going to end up with an assload of awesome (although foul smelling) O gear!

no... it was not flooded... i am a policeman (and ex- O employee) and I was there for 3 days. I saw the store and all the glass was broken out and it was pretty-well trashed. still had some product in it though like a few golf bags and stuff.

All the Juliets must be gone

Odd, the golf bag could've held quite a bit of stuff plus then you'd be all set to loot the back 9

it was almost all gone... i would love to have the cart bag that was there... but i can't do it

Its a shame to think of damage done to all those oakley items
