At least it comes in that aluminum bottle and there's sooooo many options. Lol

Interesting correlation of events how the Superdome wanted to "upgrade security" by having "NFL approved handbags" and now concession prices have skyrocketed...

The next thing you'll see is Goodell wanting NFL Superbowl Halftime performers "pay for the privilege"...wait, that has happened as well...

It's not just the beer either. A coke is like $8. That probably has a lot to do with the lack of merchandising (not that 10th in the league is bad or anything). That and the fact that everybody already bought their Drew Brees and Rafael Bush jerseys years ago.

Re: Forbes Ranks Best NFL Fans

I have always been so proud of us WHODATS. How few games were not sold out and blacked out in our history? A history which pales in success compared to every other team on that list. Yet we remained loyal. We are DEFINETELY the most optimistic of all fan bases. I've predicted so many Saints Championships it's ridiculous. Of course I predicted John Fourcade would lead us to a title and finally past Joe Montana and the 49ers. Did he make it to week 8 as the starting QB?
