Was at the first game ever, September 17, 1067. Gilliam ran from right to left where we sat. Probably also a preseason game before that but I can't remember who it was against.
Dad had season tickets until first or second season in the Dome, even after we had moved to Lafayette. Boy, those were some long game days, driving down and back same day before I-10 was built, knowing they were probably going to lose.

Got you beat- I attended Saints-Falcons pre-season game on 9/9/1967 at Tulane Stadium. Fight broke out in the stands during the 4th Quarter, right in front of me & my Dad. Some Falcon fan was talking smack early on, but he didn't like it when someone gave him smack talk right back in the 4th Quarter when Saints made a comeback and ending up winning the game. Guess you can say we always had a rivalry with the Falcons, nothing has changed! Speaking of that 1967 season, I was only 10 years old, but still remember almost every game that year. We would always take a quick lead, then fall behind- story of the Saints that year. Some amazing halftime shows too!
