re: 1987 New Orleans Saints

Me too. I was 10 years old and sitting in the plaza end zone under the over hang. Remember it like it was yesterday. We actually went up 7-0 in that game and I thought we were going to roll!

My father was a season ticket holder that year ( I bought them this year from him) and I remember that year fondly. I also remember the playoff loss. At the half after the Hail Mary from Wilson to Carter to give Minnesota a huge lead, the guy sitting behind us got into a fight with Jim Mora, Jr. The guy was being an arse and always was a loud drunk guy. After that little fight, he came back to his seats almost at end of 3rd quarter and never said a word.

What started the fight was the guy behind us calling Mora an a-hole and other profanities. Jim Mora, Jr tried to calm him down to no avail. Mora, Jr was in the suite. The guy would take a swing at Mora, Jr who was being restrained by other people. Mora, Jr actually connected on a punch and my dad actually caught the guy from falling back over the seats. Memorable experiences for a kid at his first playoff game.

Our seats were 2 rows in front. Apparently that is one of the owner or coaches suites as Vince Vaughn, Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw and other celebs have sit in them.
