Sport & Fitness » My First NFL Game Experience! Saints vs Lions Playoff!

Pin It

Ahhhhh! Where do I start? Attending any Football Game has always been a dream for me. Not any games, but the Saints home game it is. I've been watching Football for nearly three to four years now. I've became a really big huge fans to my boys, the New Orleans Saints. Who Dat, We Dat! :)

While I was out and about with my sister last Saturday. She told me her friend found better seats for the Playoff game. My sister knew it was impossible to sell her tickets last minute for the amount she had paid for. These tickets are usually $45 to up. She paid the triple amount it was supposed to be. If I can remember both tickets she paid were $326! That's crazy, but hey these are last minute tickets! Also it was the Playoffs.

She was planning to give them to my little sister and her boyfriend, but she knew I've never been to one. So she decided to give it to my little sister and I. You guys don't know how exciting it was for me. I literally called my little sister to grab my camera, Black jeans and my #9 jersey. Lol I was out with my sister so we didn't want to drive back home.

After Copelands I went to go drop my car off at my sister's friend house. We were riding together with my sister's friend so it was no point of bring two cars. After the chaotic traffic we finally head downtown. The game was taken part at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. I felt the hype as I turned on every corner. Fans were tailgating everywhere! You guys don't know how pack it was out there. It was crazy!!! Even if fans don't attend the game, but they would come out and support the Saints! That's what I love about New Orleans!

As we got into the line this one old lady kept chanting Who Dat, We Dat! Move Em Chains! Geaux Saints! Lol! Obviously she was mad drunk! Yes! People get drunk, crunking before the game. Lol As my sister and her friend departed to the 100 section. My little sister and I had to walk our butt up too the 600 area. The nosebleeds area, but holy crap! We could see the whole freaking yard where we were sitting at. :D Walking around and around to the 600 sections were very tiring! We had to walk up chunky steps which were very scary! I have short legs so ahhh I was holding onto the rail. D:

I would've to say I was screaming like crazy! Chanting to our chant! Booing the Lions. Lol Giving high five to strangers, but they were super friendly. This one man couldn't stop us from laughing! Haha! We had a few Lions fans sit around us. I felt bad because as they were leaving people were booing them. Lol

Here are some pictures I took during the game. I would've to say I had the best time ever! I'm glad I got to experience something I thought I never would! Thanks to my sister I got to go to the Playoffs with the Saints, Lions.

Of course, the Saints won! Whoooohooo!

After three and half hours of the game we walked from the Superdome to the Harrahs casino. Lawd baby Jesus, it was a farrrr walk. We walked because it was impossible to find a parking spot. We ate at McAlister which was very delicious! I don't have pictures of what I ate because my phone died. Lol Afterward, we walked back to the car and this is when my legs felt like jello. Haha

Sorry for the long post, but I'm glad I got to share you my experience!

They lost today but it was a good game. I want to go to a Saints game one day. I've only gone to LSU games. Looks like you had fun. Even though I'm sad the tigers lost I like how they spelled it on the field.

Haha I was at my friends 16th birthday party while this game was going on, and everyone kept checking on this game because I live about 30-45 minutes from Detroit! I didn't get to actually watch the game, but I heard it was really good! I was kinda bummed the lions lost though :(
