I've met 2 Saints Fans
 
I was filling my wifes car up with gas Monday. When i saw a man with a Saints hat on. I said Who Dat! He smiled and said Who Dat back to me. We talk talked for a quick second, and we moved on. WOW a Saints fan in Milford Ct. I'm not the only one.

So today I'm at the same gas station ( Costco ). A older gentelman knock on my widow, and said i notice your a Saints fan. I yes! He asked if I go to the games and I said i haven't been in a while. He said he is a season ticket holder. Again we talked for a quick second and he left. He live the next town over from me. Both guys were very nice.

I wish I got their names. I have a feeling I will meet them again.

Who Dat!

Awesome Q. When I used to travel a lot I always enjoyed a good "Who Dat?!" with another Saints fan. There always seemed to be at least one no matter when I went. Even Australia of all places.

Who Dat!

I live out here on the edge of the Earth in California and every time I wear my jersey...EVERY time...somebody comments on it. It happened most recently on Battery street, just off the train in downtown San Francisco. I'm walking up the street, minding my own business, and I hear "WHO DAT!". I look around and it's a construction worker, about 3 stories up, yelling down at me.

It's just way cool.

I've said it many time, Salt Lake is an NFL black hole.

That being said, I would estimate, based on what I see people wearing, the most popular teams are Denver and 49ers. And then the Saints. Lot of Saints fans in the land of the Latter Day Saints.

Funny. I was at a light today behind a guy who had a large fleur-di-lis on his spare wheel cover. Kind of brave for ATL, but there are many, many Saints fans here.
Lot of people transplanted by the storms, and a few more who just like good football ;)

I've ran into a few people in Virginia that are Saints fans...
Some being from LA and some who aren't.
What's funny is one time I had a conversation with an Army guy come to find out we're from the same town!

There's actually a lot of transplants from New Orleans there after Katrina. Saw a childhood friend of mines a few months back and he said they love it up there.

Pre-2006 I never saw other Saints fans here in Arkansas.

Now I see other Saints fans in restaurants, on hiking trails, in stores.

EVERYWHERE! :saintsfan:

True dat! I meet a few, it was always nice to see or meet a few. When i flew back from the super bowl i was in the salt lake airport going for my luggage and this hot women was drunk walked up to me and asked if i knew who the mvp was for that game? I said Drew, she said no "its Devery Mother Fing Henderson." I almost shat myself.....

Every once and a while I'll see the beautiful Fleur here.
Last year I saw a punk with a Saints hat and said "Who dat!" as I passed him. He stopped and looked at me as if I said something offensive. I stopped too and smiled even though I was disappointed that the guy was clueless.

Thousands of millions of WhoDats here in Nola.

I run into Who Dats here in town every now and then( Sandpoint Idaho). Its always good to run into a hometowner way out here. The best restaurant in town is run by some NO expats.

Surprisingly there are quite a few up here in Calgary, but most of them are bandwagoners from 2009 and have no idea who Aaron Brooks is.

Met a guy here in Evansville (IN) today who runs restaurant in town. He's from Belle Chasse originally and ended up here after Katrina. Makes trips down twice a month to pick up fresh fish and shrimp. Dude serves up a mean seafood gumbo and shrimp poboy.

I play online poker on Club WPT and my screen name is SaintsWillWIn.

I have chatted with a lot of Saints fans; plus a few failclowns, 40-whiners and PEDhawks have attempted to trash talk me.

It still amazes me how quick atlanta fans STFU when their team is referred to as the failclowns!

The manager at the grocery I shop at is also a Who Da. And is always asking me what is going on with my boys because I always represent when I leave the house. For ten minutes we discussed the transactions and direction that the team was going and it was a beautiful thing. Saints fans are the best.

My friend and I gave two women a ride back to their hotel from Jazzfest

They were trying to stop the cabs on Bayou St John that have to pass by so we helped them out.

They were both from Baltimore and huge Saints fans

they also had been down here 20 times in 10 years

Is that a good thing or a bad thing. Aaron Brooks that is. Never liked him at all.

Caught up to a lady in traffic the other day with a Fleur de Lis sticker. I pulled up alongside and gave her a menacing look as I sign-languages her to roll down her window...

Once her window was down I flashed a big smile and a "WhoDat!" Her reaction was priceless, expecting an ass-chewing from a jerk in traffic and getting a smile!

We married the next day and had ten kids and lived happily ever after...
(not really) :smile:

There's not much to like about Brooks, but what I was getting at is most of the fans up here jumped on the wagon after the super bowl win and have probably bought a bunch of Seahawks gear already.
