Those were not his seats - he came down from somewhere else as Redskins fans were clearing out because they were up by 7 and driving with 3-4 minutes left. As soon as he settled into that spot, they missed the FG....

Might live in the Washington area and was an old Saint fan transplanted there. I had my own pre conceptions about the dude from the pictures but once I saw the motion clips, he just looks like a dude having the time of his life at a Saints game rocking some old school gear.



Somebody posted either here, SR or Facebook that when security was telling him to settle down - he told them "I've been waiting for 2 (may have been 4?) years to see this" and wasn't going to calm down.

I'm guessing hurricane transplant.

Ah ok. Wow, those Redskin fans that left were assuming a lot. They must not have watched many Saints games.

you people make me sick...I work with homeless men everyday and they are PEOPLE with FEELINGS. I have taken them to LSU baseball and LSU football games, and some people are generous to donate tickets to allow me to do this.

Here is a picture of us at the LSU/Tulane game this year. To be honest, you would never know these men are homeless. It pisses me off when people come on here and degrade and judge the homeless. Get a LIFE.

I'm all the way to the right, and a kid in our local neighborhood is in the front middle...The rest are homeless and working to get their lives back on track. One of those in the picture just got his GED, and two others have full time jobs and are close to being back in society again.

Sorry for venting, it upsets me when i see threads like this...Noone has a clue about this guys financials or his life, so stay out of it.

That's a great thing you do. I don't think anyone means any disrespect, just having a little fun.

I don't know why everyone is so chippy on a message board for a team that is 12-0.

I am from Louisiana and I was at the game with about 6,000 " Who Dat Fans". Most of them from various area in and around DC. It was great to see these fans support them whether they were "True Saints" fans or not. Especially when they are tailgating like only real Saints fan do.

Agreed 100%.

This made me sick to my stomach the first time I read this. It's a disgrace.

The only embarassment I see is you. Just because we are undefeated this late in the season gives you the right to cast judgement on another fan(a Saints fan) at that? 10 years ago it wouldn't have mattered who we had as a fan. Just showing up at a game that far away to root for the Saints and people would have praised him. The more we win the more cocky our fanbasr gets. You my friend are the only false sense of what a fan is!!

He's a Saints fan and looked like he has had some hard times. Props to him for going to the game and pulling for his team. Looks like he could use a happy day. Have a Great Day Homeless Dude.
