My first reaction when I saw it on the news (well, more like heard it; I use the TV more as background noise unless I'm using it as the output peripheral for my DVR or DVD player) was "Well, I'm glad I'm retired..." When I was active I only played down there once, and that was meeting a lady who I'd seen a few times before, and who was passing through UTR anyway.
Otherwise I had a tendency to stick to Memphis, as much out of laziness and desire not to drive that far (says the man who's been known to travel several hours to see a lady on his radar...
) as out of any concern for safety. About the only reason I head into MS these days is to go to Steak 'n Shake in Southhaven or Wiseguys in Horn Lake (when I'm jonesin' for an Italian beef).
Though some day I'm going to have to make a run down to the Gulf coast (and make a pilgrimage to Dizzy Dean's grave along the way), so I suppose I'll have to cross the state line for that.
Cheers,
