How did you become a Saint's Fan?

I saw this question on another site and thought it would be interesting, myself I was born and raised in New Orleans. I was 7 the Saint's first year. My father was a cop and he would meet the players at certain functions and get me autographs all the time. I got Hargett's, Taylor's, Kilmer's and Dempsey's from the old school and many others. I remember listening to the Saint's on the radio because in them days there were only 4 stations in NO, WVUE, WDSU, WWL and WGNO and we were always blacked out.
Sometimes we forget how good we have it now, compared to the time when information was a week late and Buddy D. was still dispensing it.

I guess I have always been black and gold, Geaux Saint's!!!!!!!!!
