TV Week’s Michele Greppi reports: NBC News cameraman Tom Baer and special events bureau chief Heather Allen, “after watching a desperate man fail to convince authorities to allow him to take his 2-month-old lab-pit bull mix into the Superdome, took the pup into their truck after exchanging contact information with the man. At the end of the week, the pup, dubbed Spritzer in honor of the weather, was still calling the satellite truck home.”
