WTF? At one point they couldn't even sell out a playoff game. Close to a blackout. I think it was that RAMS playoff game



I am almosy positive that you are wrong about this. they sold out and even sold standing room only tickets for this game.

My bad, they had to get TWO extensions to sell out a playoff game in a DOME.

After getting two extensions of the N.F.L. blackout deadline, the Saints announced yesterday morning that today's game against the Rams was sold out and the black-out lifted.
