Yes tradition, but it has long been an iconic emblem of our city.

It took on a larger meaning following Katrina. It is now a symbol of rebirth, unity and strength for me and many others.

To me it is one of the most stirring symbols that exists.

It is just so damn pretty to my eyes and to my heart.

Bill Bergey, a former Linebacker for the Eagles, made an unfortunate and self-revealing speech about the Fleur-de-Lis on the side of the Saints lustrous helmet, exclaiming: “I used to wanna just knock that thing off the side of their heads, what is that thing anyway?”

And how many Super Bowl rings do the Iggles have?
