Lucy's retired surfer bar in New Orleans. They projected the game onto the wall of a nearby business. I'd estimate the screen size at 200".
Walked through the French Quarter afterward, and gave no less than 500 high-fives to other walkers, drivers of passing cars, and cops on horses.
I wouldn't trade that experience for an all expense paid trip with tickets to the game.

Both of my brothers went to the game; I stayed here in Baton Rouge and watched it with my dad, who's getting too old to travel. He's a classic bitcher, one of those "we're getting our arse kicked" guys whenever something goes wrong- like the 3 and out to start the game this time. He loves the Saints (and LSU), he just can't keep his cool during games.
It was great; he was in full "we're blowing this" rant when Porter grabbed the pick-6. He just stopped talking, picked up his 80 lb dog like it was a puppy and hugged it with a big goofy grin on his face. Then he went to the kitchen and came back with 3 more Abita Ambers- for him, me, and one in the dog's bowl.

seen me cry was when Hartley kicked the Game Winner (I held a pillow crying after it went through and it hit me that we were going to the SB),
I was hammered for that one. That game drove me nuts. I was at a sports bar here in Houston and there weren't a ton of Saints fans just Vikings. I stood up and started yelling. I must have said "Oh shite" about a dozen times. No tears. Just pacing.

That is funny. My Dad prefers the conspiracy theory bitching. "Goddamn refs" or something like that.
Again, my Dad just got quiet. No tears. No dog to hug, and he wouldn't drink a beer. I asked, but Schlitz is not as available as it was during my Dad's beer drinking days. So I only had my fancy stuff.

A good friend of mine owns an apartment/balcony over Bourbon Street, which he usually rents out for parties, Mardi Gras, whatever.
He set up two big screen TV's in the apartment, and we had a huge party with about 60 people.
I can understand why some of y'all wouldn't want to be around people, but it was kind of nice to have conversations and jokes during commercials to distract from the 25lb weigh that felt like it was sitting on my chest.
When it was over, we poured onto the balcony to watch the street fill up.

I went to the game in Miami with a friend and sat by myself. We then went to south beach on ocean drive and shut down the Clevlander bar at 5:30 am.

At home the night before talking to my cousin who was in Miami. Next got a call from "Penalty Man" who had a place to crash in Miami. Ten minutes later I was on Delta website snagging a plane ticket. Flew into Miami gameday morning, found a ticket for 1k and the rest was history. With a minute left in the game found my cousin and enjoyed the final seconds ticking away with the person who suffered through all the years of Saints history with me, rejoicing.

funny story: Lawyer Milloy was sitting at the VIP table next to ours and my friend kept calling him Ty Law on purpose all night. dude got so pissed.
