These Saints fans care and have always cared ... without having to reduce themselves to stuff like that. Try filling your stands. Try actually having people show up by the opening kickoff.

Since the very first game that the Saints flew back into New Orleans from away games back in the 1960's the airport entryway has been lined with anywhere from hundreds to thousands of fans ... win or lose ... every week ... rain or shine. This is a tradition and has been for almost fifty years. That type of devotion shows that you care. Having the 90,000 seat Superdome fully packed at kickoff regardless of day or time shows you really care.

Not throwing crap on the field. Not egging opponents. Not causing delays in games due to lack of control.

I am truly sorry, but your definition of caring and mine do not mesh.

With all due respect this response is the worst and lacks perspective. Your response is like Romney telling poor people to borrow money from their poor parents to start a business.

We don't have that luxury of having a strong fan base for 50 years. Some of us may not codone the egging but it damn sure feels good to see some passion and hopefully overtime it will turn into something positive, but don't look down on us and fault us for appreciating the passion behind the event even if the event itself is negative.

Try to have some perspective, not all of us are as "privileged" as u were growing up with a strong fan base.
