When the Saints went to the playoffs a few years ago they had to play at the Bears. I didn't go to that game but a few family and friends did, and in addition to their stories as other stories I've heard from locals down here, I never heard so many stories of visiting fans being disrespected and treated so inhumanely and such, much worse than just your friendly ribbing or trash talk.

I heard a fair amount of stories of Saints fans getting pelted with snowballs during the games and sometimes even being pelted with projectiles hidden inside snowballs.

I remember seeing a Bears fan with a sign that said "We're going to finish what Katrina started". It really disappointed me seeing that.

You have to know your limits as a fan. I know all Bear fans and fans of Chicago teams are definitely not like that, but the quantity of bad fan experience stories I heard from people down here that went to that game was pretty alarming. Glad to hear that the home crowd there was good.

Lovely stuff on the pics there Jay, I definitely like.

being from Katrina land I remember how classless it looked on tv. My uncle was at that game and is a Chicago native. He said there is no problem making fun of people, but Katrina and stuff hidden in snowballs is just a little much.

Figured this would be as good a thread as any for a couple pics of Babcock I snagged from the broadcast.

Do you have a video file of this?
