Heh, all this spiritual leader talk reminds me of one of my favorite moments at a live Saints game. I'm in Carolina, in the upper decks around the forty yard line. It's the game when Ricky ran the ball in on the last play of the game from the one. Anyway, that whole drive this guy (Saints fan) is coming up to me and telling me how I've "GOT TO BELIEVE". By the end of the drive the few Saints fans were all around us. Him screaming something about belief and me chiming in "amen" or something. Great fans make for great experiences.

Sorry WAY OFF topic.

Nothing like being around fellow Saints fans at the Dome..

LTF, been there twice. Loved both times, trying to find a way to get back this year, but looks like it'll be next year. Just can't afford the flight, hotel, AND tickets. Maybe I should just sleep on the streets.

I normally go to at least one game per season with the exception of last year, I came very close to buying season tickets this season but didn't, I regret it every Sunday now..
I'm talking to a few people around where I live to buy a couple of tickets to any home game, I know some one who has season tickets who thought about skipping the Ravens game but since being 5-1 they changed their minds, I can't say I blame them..
I love going to the Dome when the Falcons are in town, the Falcon fans can be fun at times, other times they get under your skin but in most cases it's all good.
There's is nothing better than getting in the Dome about an hour before kickoff & talking with otherr fans, the excitement is just sick.

Believe me I already know that...the only thing Mexico is good at passing to anyone is herpes

I agree with Poydras, that is a really cool tat. And I'm usually not so much into the tats. For instance, Weatherford's arms really scare me.
