But here is one that was significant to me, well before that.
December 31, 1990

Los Angeles Rams were the vistors to the Superdome for the last game of the that season. No matter that we were really not a good team. I was there.
There was drama in the last seconds when Morten Andersen got a second chance to kick the game winning field goal and put us into the postseason with a pathetic 8-8 record.

There was of course the Dome Patrol;

Sam Mills, Rickey Jackson, Vaughan Johnson, Pat Swilling.

My favourite player of that time; a certain Dalton Hilliard. I still have my old 21 Saints shirt from them times.
