I was very much hoping for them to win, you guys needed something to celebrate. Besides Marty gras I mean.

Yeah, it's hilarious how Mardi Gras starts this weekend. Too much!!!

Never been part of such an amazing sports story. So much more than a football team to New Orleans.

Congratulations to the Saints and all Saints fans out there. I myself am a Cowboys / Cardinals fan but I have had nothing but respect for the Saints especially after Katrina. They really deserved this.

It's different from anything else I've ever experienced. I was a Bulls fan and a diehard Pistons fan... and was very happy during those times when they won (especially when the Pistons beat that Laker dream team)... but this is soooo unique, the people here... I mean, around 250,000 is a small population.... are all so strongly affected by this. It's really really cool.

Yeah, I remember when east LA turned practically into a war zone after a laker victory..... I think, I may be imagining that

Nah.. as one person told me... "we don't burn cars, we dance on them!" I'm also a Detroit/Chicago fan, from where I grew up, so I can honestly say that things are completely different in New Orleans from anywhere else in the country. The city is actually different from any other city in Louisiana even!

NOLA is entirely a different kind of place all together. I really miss it!
