We got some decent videos and good photo or two. Enjoy!

    Caidy and I took off early Tuesday afternoon and after almost four hours (to go about 60 miles) we made it to the Quarter House in New Orleans to stay the night and see the Saints carry the Lombardi Trophy Mardi Gras style through the streets of New Orleans.

    We stood with a friendly crowd at the intersection of Canal and Camp. It was cold, so we stayed warm with a not so nutritional combination of alcohol and funnel cakes. The parade was slow moving with a pretty long route, but it was fun.

We couldn’t help it, and just had to drive out to see the reaction. This is Academy Sports around 10:30pm Feb. 7th, 2010 in Houma, Louisiana.

    I just keep thinking that my parents were there in Miami, screaming.
