More Than a Team
The relationship between the Saints and New Orleans is deeper than sports. After Hurricane Katrina, the team became the symbol of the city's rebirth. The blocked punt by Steve Gleason in the first game back at the Superdome is perhaps the most emotional moment in NFL history.
"Who Dat Nation" is everywhere. From the grandmothers in the Garden District to the brass bands in Treme, everyone is a Saints fan. The team is the heartbeat of the city.
The Dome Field Advantage
The Caesars Superdome (forever just "The Dome" to locals) is a fortress. It is dark, loud, and intimidating. When the "Halftime Show" style brass band starts playing "When the Saints Go Marching In" after a touchdown, the building shakes.
Champions Square, right outside the dome, is the premier pre-game spot. It feels like a music festival with thousands of fans dancing, eating jambalaya, and getting hyped before entering the gates.
The Brees-Payton Legacy
Drew Brees and Sean Payton brought a Super Bowl title (XLIV) to a franchise that had been the laughingstock of the league (the 'Aints'). That standard of offensive excellence remains. Fans here expect points. They expect aggressive play-calling. They expect a show.
