Fans
How much do Saints fans love their team? So much that, after their team got whipped by the Bears, hundreds of them went to the airport and waited hours in the cold rain, just to welcome their team home and to say "Thanks." (Thanks to ESPN.com for noticing.)
They said that if the Saints had gone to the Super Bowl and won it, it would have been the sports story of all time. Guess what? It's still the sports story of all time.

Thank you for posting this story. Yet another example why the people of New Orleans are an inspiration. I can't imagine what the coaches and players felt when they saw from the sky the lines of cars below.
