My dad. He died in 1987.
+1 but mine died in January so he missed the 1st winning season. He taught me to be a fan win or lose

My dad for sure.
He bought season tickets on a meager income for the entire family in 1967, turning all of us into lifelong suffering fans. Throughout it all he kept up a "this could be the year" attitude.
When he was in the hospital towards the end in 1995, he heard my brother and I discussing the upcomining Saints season with the same perrennial optimism and cut us off, saying the Saints will never be good and we shouldn't have false hopes. We knew then that his situation was grave.
I've thought about him alot recently and wish he could be here to see this. He'd have a hellluva time.

I am wearing a Buddy D pin tomorrow on my jersey. Buddy D would be on so much Xanax right now if he was still here. Still love you Buddy D despite you butchering the King's language.
