ALEXANDRIA, La. (AP) - A Louisiana businessman has bought a noted piece of New Orleans Saints memorabilia - a flag that hung outside Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels' office as part of a wager Daniels made with Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal.
Bryan Bossier, owner of Diamond B Construction in Alexandria, paid $6,852 for the flag in an online auction Thursday.
The governors agreed that the loser of the Colts-Saints Super Bowl game would display the winning team's flag for a week at their state capitol building.
The money from Bossier's purchase goes to an inner-city youth sports program in Indianapolis.
Bossier won the auction in the final seconds by placing a winning bid just before the auction expired, too late for anyone to outbid him.
