Among the business being discussed at today's Transportation Policy Town Hall in Minneapolis is the sad result of Vikings' loss to the New Orleans Saints Sunday.

U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar lost her bet with U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu of Louisiana. Now Klobuchar has to make gumbo for Landrieu tonight, reportedly wearing a Saints jersey.

If you were Landrieu, would you want a Minnesotan's gumbo?

When U.S. Rep. Jim Oberstar married Jean Kurth in 1993, her hometown wasn't an issue. But she's from New Orleans, so they had a little bet going on the playoff game. He was hoping for a night off from dishwashing. He lost.
