First lady Michelle Obama came Wednesday to the French Quarter, not for fine dining or jazz but to play football with the NFL.
She caught a pass during a flag football drill with a group of children at a temporary football field in Woldenberg Park. The NFL's Play 60 clinic is part of the league's events for the Thursday launch of its football season.
The program encourages children to move at least an hour each day. Its goals are similar to her "Let's Move!" campaign against childhood obesity. In July, she teamed up with Major League Baseball in Baltimore to promote exercise and healthy eating for America's youth.
