I would have put the Saints but the NFL is picky about its IP and I didn't feel like testing it.

It wasn't bad for its time. And the theme is still relevant today. When does a star know it's time to walk away. Filmed in New Orleans and Tulane Stadium. Huge help for the project.

This is outstanding. I was young when it was torn down and often have wanted to know what it looked like inside. Can you do Pelicans stadium if you can get enough information? Would love to experience that. One of the shames in this country is we tear down our Coliseum's while Europe preserves them.

You are correct.
If Americans were in charge of the Eiffel Tower they sell the steel for scrap. If Americans owned the Roman Colosseum, they would raze it and build condos.
Baton Rouge is the WORST in preserving history.

Just rewatched. The Frey Meats sign when you are approaching the south end is rendered backwards (mirror image).

Only thing missing from the video, not that is makes a difference, are the flag poles along the outer perimeter..
Another thing I remember was, if it rained the night before a game, you would get a wet arse from those rain soaked wooden bleachers.

Thanks.. yes its been a great find for sure to get a look at the locker room as well as the north corner where the team came in

This is neat. It was gone before I was born so can't help much in this regard

No detail too small. It matters a lot. I am trying to make things as accurate as possible, the plan is to replace things I guess with things I know so those missing flags are a big deal since its one of the few things we know and can see. Lol
Any idea what they said on them? Id love to capture the look of the real ones if i can.
I plan on adding flags to the poles on the south side as well.

I actually read where the north stadium iron was sold to upgrade another stadium but im not sure of the details.

The Saints had flags flying on all those poles around the top of the stadium. They alternated black and white arong the top and both types had wide gold trim on their edges. I can't remember what exactly was on the flags, eithers the word "Saints" or a fleur-de-lis or both. And I think they were tapered but not all the way like a pennant.
Wish could find a better picture.
I had a neighbor that stole one and had it hanging in his bedroom.

They were basically Saints flags that alternated color with each flag. Gold border on a white flag with a gold fleur de lis and alternated with a black border flag with a black fleur di lis.
Tried to find a close up but no pics were available. I remember a guy tried to steal one once, but the cops stopped him.

I think the Saints museum had one. Might try to contact Kenny Trahan.

Good thinking.. let me see what i can find
Posted on 10/13/25 at 11:05 am to Hangover Haven
I guess better they end up in a trash can than on someones wall who would have preserved it.. lol.
Posted on 10/13/25 at 11:13 am to Stadium Rat
You would have figured the would have put new flags for super bowl ix but the ones on the video look pretty tattered.. lol the 70's
