“My Definition of a Who Dat Nation!!!”
A nice article someone linked to on Facebook. I really, really, really wish I could have been home to experience this.
Some may never be able to comprehend what is occurring here in NOLA. It’s not just about a TEAM or its crazy fans! It’s about a city and an organization that has been able to provide an indescribable sense of Pride and Unity that has been longed for and turned hope into reality. History has been made in a POSITIVE way and the memory of where we were, how we felt, and what we did when we attained that Championship will be engraved in our hearts FOREVER!!! Passion and Drive fall short to what this has meant for all of us, let me just quickly remind some of you or share for those of you who aren’t here what has happened here within the last 24 hours:
1. Cell Phone reception was lost for over an hour!
2. Grown men cried like babies!
3. A Gumbo of people of all ages, genders, and ethnicities hugged each other with sincere joy and happiness!
4. People ran out of their homes and apartment complexes screaming Who Dat till their voices were gone.
5. Academy Sports open its doors to receive fans purchasing NFC Championship memorabilia till late hours and into the morning.
6. Downtown New Orleans was PACKED with RESIDENTS w/ a minimum amount of visitors celebrating this win without ANY negative reports/fights/crime.—Lisa Reyes
