I remember going to a couple games in someones suite.

I think the guys name was marshall faulk.

No relation to the runningback.

I might be making that up, but im pretty sure his last name was faulk.

Maybe I shouldn't admit it....but I've never been to a Saints game. My family and I moved to Shreveport from Indiana when I was two and my dad didn't used to care much about the NFL so he never took me didn't have the money this year but hopefully next seson I'll be able to take a weekend trip down and to N.O. and catch a game.

Colts in the Dome 1989. I was one of the few residents of Baton Rouge not to feel the ground shaking from the Exxon explosion because it happened while we were at the game (or on the way back, I forget the timing). Saints blew out the Colts 41-6 - I remember that. And I remember the giant black cloud over BR.

Saints vs. Dolphins in Tiger Stadium. That game was terrible.

Never been to a Saints game in the dome. . .if you have Cowboys or Bucs tickets though then you can make it happen.

I saw them play the Cardinals (St. Louis)and they won back in 68' or 69', I still have the program, I don't remember much about the game anymore except the atmosphere was pure New Orleans with Al Hirt, gumbo and noise of the old stadium when everyone would start stomping there feet. It was metal. They had attached to the programs dubloons(misspell I guess), which was pure New Orleans also. I bought a pennant from the game and still have that, the fleur dis les was fat and looked stupid but it was my New Orleans and I loved it. How times have changed.

1970 against the Rams in Tulane Stadium. I was 9 years old and I don't recall much about the game except that we sat in the front row to the left of the Saints bench and during warmups a ball bounced over to me and I caught it!!!!

Bastards came and took it back. Talk about a disappointment.

Went with my dad against the old Oilers. Remember Billie White Shoes Johnson playing. I was just a small kid, but it was one of the few games my dad and I went to together. Great memory.

MNF vs Pittsburgh Steelers

First game was a MNF game vs Steelers in 1974. I was almost 5 and have a couple clear memories of being at the game.

I was actually at the first game – not one of 378,000 that now claim to have been there.

And yes, I am an older-fart.
