Have the Saints ever done a black helmet with a gold fleur-de-lis??
In 1969, then-owner John Mecom trotted out black helmets for the Saints' preseason games. Players loved the new look. There was only one problem. Mecom forgot or failed to register the new uniforms with the NFL. The league's entire merchandise line reflected the Saints' gold helmets. Thus, NFL officials League officials forced the Saints to ditch the new look and the black helmets became a popular footnote in team lore.
