Plus, the city needs the bandwagoners, too. For example, my buddy who came down with me to the game this weekend didn't really have an NFL team that he pulled for. It was his first trip to NO and not only is he a new fan of the team, he has fallen in love with the city New Orleans.

So I say hop on, there's plenty of room.

Great point. More fans bring more money!!

Depends on what team they dumped to become Saints fans .... if it was the Cowboys then NO bus is full

I saw plenty of Giants fans in the quarter so after the Saints put a whooping on the other team, their fans can go spend their money as well .... win win if you ask me

Let them on if they want to pull for our Saints...who knows maybe they will become full time fans not just fair weather. Fans have to start liking a team at some point to become fans. If they stay fans then that's great, if not we won't miss them. I welcome all would be Saints fans to the fold.

Like I tell everyone, once your on, your on. There is no getting off to get back on. Once the train leaves.... holla!!!!!!

You bet they're welcome. Especially if they're already in Saints territory. Bear in mind every new fan could also become a new tourist. Its great to
see Saints stuff popping up in SE Texas. I stop to get gas now on the way back to Houston from the game, and people see my jersey and they want to talk Saints.

Its gonna be really great to see more WhoDat fever hit NW Louisiana, especially with the Cowboys disappointing. This has been years overdue in NWLA.

I sure hope everybody in Mississippi has their black and gold on. MS fans
have been outstanding in their support, and had a hand in saving the team for N.O.

Now if Houston merchants and media would pull their heads out of their ***** and realize how many WhoDAts there are here. . . Its ridiculous how they've always catered to Cowboys fans, but virtually ignored us, and I think we outnumber them here now.

Welcome to the Saints Wagon. This winning business is new territory, but we've always found ways to have fun, and we've always Believed.

mixed feelings here, but i do like to hear all the donkey fans up here talk about our SAINTS ! What the hell JUMP ON

Let them all come they will be with us as long as our spotlight is on. Just remember when the wagon ride is over the Who Dat's will always bear the scars. We are also not used to being in this position so it will probably take a while to figure it out. You also have to think about Glanville when he said the NFL means Not For Long.

Steve Young is OK. Met him last year in Mothers before the Monday night Minnesota game and he took pictures with whomever wanted pictures and signed autographs which my wife now has. All in all a nice guy but I still hate him from the 49ers days.
