What is your most vivid New Orleans Saints Super Bowl memory?

QBREES9 · 02-02-2011, 12:28 PM

Remember when Super Bowl Sunday used to be the worst day of the entire football season? How it just served as a bitter, day-long reminder of something you desperately wanted but could never have?

No more. As disappointed as New Orleans Saints fans are about the team's early exit from the NFL post-season, Super Bowl 2011 is basically just an excuse for New Orleanians to celebrate the one-year anniversary of Super Bowl XLIV, when the Who Dat Nation sang "We Are the Champions" for the first time without crossing our fingers.

This year, the topic of conversation at Super Bowl parties will not be, "Can you imagine what this town would be like if the Saints ever won a Super Bowl?" It will be, "Do you remember what it was like when the Saints won the Super Bowl?"

The answer to that question is different for everyone. So jump into the comment stream below and tell us your most enduring memory of Feb. 7, 2010. Not the moment of the game that stands out -- thanks to Tracy Porter's heroics, we can all agree on THAT -- but the moment that will always be frozen in time for you. Was it a dogpile in your living room? A group hug with a hundred strangers in a French Quarter bar? A second-line parade to Sun Life Stadium? A tearful embrace with the Who Dat who made the road trip to Miami with you? A quiet moment alone at the end of the night, wherever you happened to be, when it finally sunk in?

Tell us your special memories, and we'll publish a selection in The Times-Picayune Living section on Super Bowl Sunday.
Or, as it is now known in New Orleans: XLIV-Day.
