Saints Fans Gameday March down I-10

foreverfan · 10-01-2009, 07:41 AM

I roll out of bed on a Sunday morning, walk down the stairs and put on the coffee, make some breakfast and sit out by the pool. I usually smoke a cigar while I listen to the radio pregame broadcast of all the people filing into the superdome.

About 11:30 people start coming over the house to watch the game on my 108" HDTV projection system. Beer is on the house but most people can't climb that high, so they bring their own. Plus, you can smokem if you gottem.

I used to go to the games but I the ticket prices got to be unreal, and the wife doesn't care to go.

Cool deal Mike. I know a few Houstonians who make the trip on occasion but every game?!

I usually climb in the car at about 9am and make the long 30 minute commute over the causeway. Lots of honking and thumbs up on there as well.

What ever happened to cool driving, anyway? Remember, back in the 70s "cool driving" was a social standard. People are wusses now. btw, LB, you drove a CAMARO, therefore you are a real man. just so you know.

1. did not know you lived in Houston (please splain) 2. you got me lost now--I think you live in North Carolina??? (why did you leave the South?) You might want to fly.

yeah yeah... catman, I get it... your life is easier than mine, and makes more sense. You're gonna wish you kept mum on this, when I come knocking on your door one gameday morning, and you're stuck cooking us breakfast. I want pancakes. and community coffee. black. maybe a shot of jack.

just about every game, holmes. I've always wondered how much trouble it is to drive across that causeway for games. and how hard it is to get back across AFTERWARD???

this is getting interesting, yall. I've always wondered what everyone else is doing while I'm hauling arshe like Luke Duke down the swamp.

See my pretty young wife there?

<<<<<<<

Now look at me. I'm short, poor, old, drive a beat-up-truck, and come
with much baggage. BUT I DRIVE REALLY COOL.

. . . and that is why she wants me.

Please do not mention this statement to her, or we will
both be laughed out of our seats.

Don't forget complete fraud. Sky???? You don't fly a plane... you sit behind a desk. You should be called DeskMike but then she might leave you.

Its only one of my brothers, his gf and one of my cousins so two of them are going to their first Saints game in the dome.

I personally liked Treys when we went after the Texans preseason game, what do you think of there?

Tell you brother to look for me. When are they driving to New Orleans?

I Liked Trey's too. Lets give a little time for the rest of our Houston area
friends to find us here again, now that the site's back up. And then we should all talk about it. I think we need to have a monday night party at
my house too.

Great picture of you and Tiff.
