Saints Fan Reactions During the Game

Rusty Costanza / The Times-PicayunePenny Cheramie and T-Man, both of Larose, cheer from their seats at Deanie's Seafood Restaurant in the French Quarter as the Saints scored their first touchdown on Sunday.
Generosity abounded in the French Quarter during the first half of tonight's New Orleans Saints game. As Kenneth "Zulu" Breaux arrived at the corner of Bourbon and Iberville streets via his wheelchair, with his "who dat" dog as his best friend, named "Pappa Joe," aboard for a ride, he was graciously given a Reggie Bush jersey by Michael Dugas of Westwego.
"Daddy's getting a brand new shirt," Breaux cried to Pappa Joe. "Awe, I can't believe this. This is so nice. And it fits me perfect."
Breaux, a resident of N. Miro street in new Orleans, is a local artist. He said he paints "oils, murals, who dats and all of that!"
Troy Rosamond of Jefferson has been a saints fan since 1967. He was standing outside Deanie's Restaurant in the French Quarter for kickoff of the NFC championship game.
"I had to be here with my homies," Rosamond said. "I had to be here for the celebration."

Redemption stories are the best kinds of stories. If someone's failed, lost their way or made more mistakes than we deem acceptable, I always find myself on that guy's side.
I'm not there supporting what they've done or making excuses for them, but hoping that they'll find a way to be better. Hoping that they'll learn from their mistakes, grow and become the person they can be. In one way or another, I think we're all striving for that.
