Dec 20 1992. Home game vs. the Bills. I don't remember much (I was 6), but I do remember the Saints sacking Jim Kelly close to the end zone and everyone was upset because they thought it was a safety.

Remember watching that game. Eric Martin had a sick one handed catch for a TD, and Buddy Ryan snubbed Mora on the post game handshake. Mora just waved him off. I remember Dierdorf commenting "Don't worry, Jim. He does that to everyone." Or something to that effect.

First Saints game you can remember going to
I guess this officially makes me the oldest person here. I make 60 this Saturday. Yes, my first game was the Saints first game ever - in Tulane Stadium. My dad and I had season tickets on the 45 yardline behind the visiting team about 15 rows up from the field. When John Gilliam ran the the opening kickoff back for a touchdown against the Los Angeles Rams, we were pouring Dixie beer all over ourselves. We were soaked but we didn't care. Al Hirt, pigeons, hot air balloons and beer we could take into the stadium. I remember it like it was yesterday and I'll never forget it. Thanks for those memories dad !!!
Drex were ya'll there for Dempsey's kick in '70?
I was 7 but remember it well....

don't remember the year, but Doug Brien kicked a bazillion FGs to beat the Rams.... I think it also happened to be Tom Dempsey Day in the dome
ETA: just looked it up ... 11-5-95 ... Brien's first game as a Saint ... he was 4-4 on FGs and the Saints won 19-10
Almost 25 years to the day (11-8-70) that Dempsey kicked his 63 yarder :)

No Metry Tyger. I didn't make that game but my dad did. I was studying for exams at LSU that Sunday. I had to listen to it on the radio. But just as Dempsey was about to kick, the radio went out and I couldn't get the results for another 30 minutes.

My only radio memory was listening to the 49ers great (terrible) comeback in 1980 when I was 9.
