Most memorable play in Saints' history

Top 3 they have here are Porter's interception in the SB, the onside kick in the SB, and Gleason's block vs. ATL for the domecoming.
These are good, but there's a special place in my heart for "Hakim drops the ball". It might be the perfection of Henderson's call on the radio, or the years of futility the Saints had as an organization.
They finally broke into the W column in the playoffs and like the SB, I will never forget where I was and who I watched that game with.
goosebumps
And to this day, I swear Henderson got so excited, he punched Hokie in the gut.
Any other significant plays should be in the running?
SIAP.

i'm such a fan of Meechum's strip fumble return though.

Its Porters pick.
Had we lost the SB it would be the Hartley kick

I'm also going with the int in the NFCCG for a few reasons:
1) On that drive you had that "same old fricking saints, they're going to break our hearts again." and then boom a completely anti-SOS play. This being in the dome and seeing the pure joy throughout the stadium just further sweetens the moment.
2) Even if Manning scores on that drive I think we would have had plenty of time left to go down the field and get the lead back. So while it was still an incredible moment I don't think it was do or die there.

Hartley's kick against the Vikings to put us in the Super Bowl is #1 for me.

Surprised to see that the onside kick is winning this right now.
I'd put that at 4th for me.
Porter Int in Superbowl
Gleason Block
Porter Int in NFC Title Game
Ambush

Most ballsy? Yes. Most memorable? No.

Not the most memorable but a play I'll never forget in 09. Getting our arse kicked by the dolphins and the comeback in the 2nd half was awesome. The play that really stands out was a pass over the middle to Schocky and Shockey was stiff arming that dude all the way down field. It looked like it was a boxing match and Schocky was jabbing the shite out of him. During that play I remember my friend and I standing up yelling at the tv "get em Schocky!"

"Hakim drops the ball!" was a pretty memorable play. The SB year kind of overshadows it.
Deuce's first down vs PHI in the playoffs to seal the game was pretty memorable, too.

As much as I would like to pick Ambush or the Porter pick. In my mind these two were simply destiny playing out the way it was supposed to.
It's Gleason's punt block. This was the beginning of the journey that was filled with bumps in the road, but deep down you knew that punt block was not just another Monday Night Football moment.
If any of that makes sense.

For fans that were at the NFC Championship, which was louder the Porter int or the Hartley Field goal?
The interception came with the saints on the ropes and the Vikings in field goal range to win it. The field goal sent the team to the Bowl. Which one was louder?
