Maybe you could get with just me or obudan or whichever jack off that was that made the JJ chart.
Y'all can consult each other.

Btw high school footage doesn't qualify.

Whichever team is winning at the time.

I concede that I can go along with that statement.

I don't know the exact number. The number I can find from a Saints official is 50,000 and that's from 2009. Tough economic times and a bad season last year have probably knocked off a few thousand, but I would bet that it's over 28,000.

I guarantee you if the Superdome held 100,000 people, it would be full September 8th.

Get it together man.

besides, anyone can be a Saints fan. How many LSU students and alumni are there in Louisiana?


I didn't go to LSU and I'd bet 90% of LSU fans didn't go there either.

I'm a LSU alumni. I love my Tigers and Saints, but I feel the exact opposite of you. If I had to pick one team to watch the rest of my life it would be the Saints, no questions asked. I'd wager most LSU/Saints fans from the NOLA metro feel the same way. I've cried over one football game in my life and that was the Saints Superbowl win.


This is exactly how I feel

I've heard it described this way before and I agree: college football fans are more white collar; pro football fans are more blue collar. Just look in the stands at any game and it's pretty much true.

ever since the Saints won the Super Bowl a lot of LSU fans have gotten little man syndrome badly. Can't stand someone else taking up the attention. Lets face it. Sean Payton and Drew Brees are simply more enjoyable than Les Miles and whichever hack he trots out under center.

Well if LSU was more popular then they would've managed to fill up way more seats in the Superdome when they played Bama.

No fanbase careens from insufferable arrogance to pitiful inferiority complex like LSU. Quite often, within the same conversation.

And, going by TV ratings, the answer would be the Saints...which I imagine is a better metric than bumper stickers/T-shirts at Wal-Mart/what the "clients" talk about at the feed store.

LSU grad btw.
