I never knew Tulane Stadium seated 200,000 people

Based on the number of people who claim they were there for the Saints first game ever, it had to hold at least 200,000 people. Kind of like the 2 million folks who claimed to be at Woodstock.

Yeah, and every one of them were in the North end zone watching Gilliam run at them too! Hilarious!

Some of them weren't even born yet but they were there.

it reminds me of this if every past and present football player attends the super bowls from now till the year 2150 there won't be any place to put a fan in the stadium. lol

So where were you when Hartley kicked the game winner?

I was holding the ball

I wasn't born until 1984, but I was there the night Tom Dempsey kicked the 63 yard field goal! I remember it well!

Hell, my mother wasn't even born yet for Gilliam's run. I wasn't alive for Dempsey's kick, but I was in my parents living room in Charlotte, NC (GET ME OUTTA HERE!!!) when Hartley kicked us into the Superbowl.
