What are the Saints wearing for Halloween?
 
Does anyone know what uni's the Saints are wearing Sunday night?

I think they should wear the full body gold alternate uniforms because -

1) Haven't seen them for a while
2) Maybe the blindingly bright colors will wake up our team in need of a change
3) For mistaken Steelers fans who call their team colors black and gold, show them convincingly there is a color difference between yellow and gold. Yellow is not gold, anymore than the blue on our nation's flag is turquoise! Pet peeve.

Superbowl Champion costumes! They've been wearing them all year.

I don't think anyone's scared of the Saints in their Super Bowl Champion costumes this year. Maybe they should wear all hot pink - that would truly disturb the Steelers - hard to look at for 4 quarters. It is the last day of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

why not retro gold jersey with gold paints and gold cleets with the retro helmet during the manning era or the old black helmet with gold fleur de lis

We've been wanting that for the longest time....I just don't see it happening.

I think they should do all black Head to foot with gold and white piping

Black Saints helmets would get lost in the shuffle with the Steelers black helmets. We will probably contrast whatever they are doing. I don't know which team (Home/Visitor) has dibs on which uniform they will wear. We should look as different as possible so we know who we are throwing to.

It's easy we're in gold and they're in yellow. Pet peeve of mine too neuguy.

Seer1 10-27-2010 05:57 PM

Didn't seem to make much difference with the other guys wearing orange and brown. How much more contrast can you get? Time to go back to the black and gold. The whites shirts aren't working all that great THIS year.

I was thinking the same thing

Ashley 10-27-2010 08:01 PM

as much as i hate the gold jersey's, i do think all gold would be cool for this game. AND NO PINK, sick of that.

AsylumGuido 10-29-2010 02:21 PM

It's official. The Saints will be wearing their black jerseys this week! :bng:

breesfan27 10-29-2010 02:25 PM

As long as they don't wear the black pants. The only thing scarier than the Pittsburgh D are those ghastly black pants.

SaintFanQ 10-29-2010 02:27 PM

Black Jerseys? Good, I prefer them and as someone has already said, the white ones are not working this year anyway!

WHO DAT!

GEAUX SAINTS!

I would imagine they'd be wearing the gold pants. That is my favorite color combo.

Srgt. Hulka 10-29-2010 02:41 PM

Black Jerseys and gold pants. Good, don't want to see them in anything else.
And Like Ashley said...No More Pink!!

st thomas 10-29-2010 02:58 PM

they should put on white spanish casualls with red belts and go run with some bulls in paloma so they can see what big nuts look like.

Gold can have many shades.

But what we traditionally recognize as "gold" looks a whole lot closer to the Steelers.

Sorry I don't go by that scientific mumbo jumbo. Crayola is my guide and their Gold is closer to Who Dat Gold than Steeler Gold.


DwarfToss 10-29-2010 03:51 PM

And if you use this color scale, the Steelers are definitely Black and Gold, the Saints are more like Black and Wood(curly).

I have a co-worker who is both a Purdue alum and a Steelers fan and also an accomplished photographer. I will get an official ruling from him on Monday.

I realize that Saints fans haven't been to Canton often, but it's known as the legendary gold jacket. Looks very similar to these unis:

The answer is yellow. Check out this story on the 2011 HOF nominees.

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?id=5571732
A near consensus of what isn't so hot is the French's mustard-colored blazers that Hall of Famers are required to wear. "I have no idea how they picked it," said linebacker Harry Carson, shaking his head. "You can definitely see us coming."

Rice and Carson were joined by fellow yellow jackets Steve Young, Roger Staubach and Warren Moon to kick off the second annual ESPN.com/fanschoice, which allows fans a forum to vote and debate. Last year, more than 1.5 million fans voted, which ended with Rice and Emmitt Smith as the two favorites, and Charles Haley, Ed "Too Tall" Jones" and Cris Carter rounding out the top five.


So, as you pointed out, the Steelers jerseys mirror these very same famous jackets in color. Yellow!

Michael Irvin recalls having sex while wearing his yellow Hall of Fame blazer

Michael Irvin is really proud of being a Pro Football Hall of Famer.

The former Dallas Cowboys receiver recounted his memories of his 2007 Hall of Fame induction this week. Irvin said he was so proud of his yellow Hall of Fame blazer that he didn't want to take it off ... including during intimate times.

Irvin describes it in his own words, via the Chicago Tribune:

"I remember when I was inducted into the Hall of Fame and they gave me my Hall of Fame yellow blazer. I wore it for two straight days. Finally my wife was in bed and said she wanted to make love but that I had to take the coat off. I refused and kept the blazer on because I wanted to perform like a Hall of Famer on the field and off."

The Pittsburgh rapper Wiz Khalifa has a song called Black and Yellow and it references the Steelers. Steeler LB LaMarr Woodley even appeared in it.

From the ...

However, the Penguins currently use "Vegas Gold", a color similar to metallic gold, and the Pirates' gold is a darker mustard yellow-gold, while the Steelers "gold" is more of a bright canary yellow.

They're all dressed like Prison Ho's because I never seen a bunch of guys get prison raped so much and actually come back for more!

Sorry guys - Gold isn't remotely close to what your team wears.

A halloween message board story...

Back in the good 'ol days :sad: when Smiley :smile: was running the show and the luster of giving Saints' fans there very first playoff win was wearing-off, this very question was asked. This response probably made me laugh as much as any other response I've ever read. The post that generated the response was...

"I'm going as #2."

One guy responds...

"You're going as doo-doo?"

You had to be there...
