Well, I think we showed them the proper way to treat out of town fans. And you could tell most of them were having fun.

I did see a couple rather voracious hecklers on our side, not a lot, but
I admit, after hearing what happened in Chicago, Im kind of understanding.
Saw one fight, and a Bears fan was escorted out. He appeared to actually be the aggressor, so the crowd really had fun with him.

And one row of Bears fans in front of us, dancing around, doing some
taunts in the first quarter, and giving us some "whoop there it is...."

which I ended up singing back to them in the 2nd Quarter. They left early, and we serenaded them down the stairs... I usually dont do that,
even to Falcons, but Bears fans earned it.

Again, I think most of them actually enjoyed New Orleans, just not the game. perfect.

edit: Oh, and one more thing. When Jimmy Graham knocked that Bears DB into La La Land, and the guy was laying there. As soon as he moved a limb, we started applauding-- meaning we were glad he wasnt seriously hurt. (Because he looked dead for a moment.)

When he walked off the field, I heard the biggest, most polite applause we've ever given an injured opposing player. No catcalls, etc. It speaks volumes about Saints Fans.
