Walking up Poydras, saw Joe. Mercedes SL 500 hard top convertible with spinners:

Woulda got a picture of him putting the hard top up when he got out in his fly gold suit, but Bubba fresh from the parish pen decided to jump in the way. You can kinda make it out to the left. Just imagine the ramp and street level CROWDED with hundreds, maybe thousands of fans yelling for Joe:

Windows still out at the Hyatt:

NFL sign:

Huge black tarp with a Fleur de Lis. That blurry electronic display was a countdown clock until the opening:

This is what was unveiled:

Finally inside. No more ugly muti colored carpet on the concourse:

Da roof:

Blurry jumbotron:

The field:

ESPN crew on that gray mat, but you can barely make them out. Tom Jackson was scarfing down something at one point during the game.

Pretty cool when they took the field for warm ups, the team lined upabout 7 rows across and took the field at the same time and stretched. You can kinda sorta but not really make out the rows:

Saints marching in:
