New Mannings sports restaurant opening downtown
He did not make donations to the assessor's office. He donated to the assessor's campaign. When he won he gave his supporters lower assessments. I think Archie payed around 3k a year less.
While I don't agree with the practice I don't think it makes him the worse person ever. He got a 3k tax break on his house. It's not like he had a freezer full of bribe money. I can't think of any other former players who have stuck around NOLA and made the kind of contributions he has.
And hoping he goes broke when all he's doing is getting a check for the use of his name and making appearances is laughable.
