- NFL Media's Mark Kriegel recounts how the Saints appeared to be headed out of New Orleans leading up to Hurricane Katrina, and while some thought the disaster may be final straw, instead it proved the glue that kept the team where it was founded.

As much as I despise the Saints, being a Bucs fan, I can't deny how much the Saints mean to the city of New Orleans, and how they elevated the city out of despair from Katrina
I appreciate that man as a saints fan I really do appreciate it
PhenomenalRazor88 ik I'm a saints fan I hate the bucs there gay idiots
The only downside is that the retractable seats were removed, so the Superdome can no longer fit a baseball field.
Sports is sports, but respecting human life goes way beyond.
The times like this ,you realize the sports frenemies relationship is a childish thing
in comparison to what's real. So it should stay in the friendly realm of nagging at each other for some lovely banter.
It's even better if you learn to do it with a smile. And for a good banter, you need that neighbourhood 'jerk' to rub elbows with. Just don't take it too seriously. See him as a chance to improve your verbal skills, wits, and addrenaline boost :)
We don't like the Buccaneers either but we love you guys! 😁 Thanks for your great comment. We really appreciate it! I hope you guys have an awesome season this year!
Those construction workers better of gotten life time season passes. Lol
How is that funny
Spoiler: they didnt

As a Falcons fan, that day in 2006 when we lost to the Saints was one of the only times I didn’t have a problem losing the game, that moment was bigger than the game. Seeing what the city went through and to have the Saints spark the rebirth of an entire city the way they did, you would be heartless to have felt anything but compassion
Nathan Butler Jr. I respect u saying that it really meant a lot to us in that game
I Can’t imagine New Orleans without our saints. We love y’all. Win or lose we won’t give up.
I have lived in Detroit my whole life and I'm sorry to say I'm a die hard Detroit Lions Fan! On the night when the Saints came back home and reopened the dome on Monday night football vs the Atlanta Falcons it was must see tv for me and at that time my 7 year old son and my wife who hates football had to watch this game. During the pregame we were listening to the crowd at the dome and they were loud passionate, and so excited to have their Saints back and as my family and I watched the pregame we had goosebumps all over and we felt privileged that the saints and the city and the dome let us all be part of this with our TVs, and then it happened, the Falcons go to punt and it's blocked and ran back for a touchdown! OMG. that to my family and I was one of the best sports moments of all time! The players went crazy and that crowd was going insane and as I'm watching this incredible moment, I cried my eyes out and I couldn't stop, that was the first time my wife ever saw me cry and she was crying too and my son at 7 years old realized how big this was and he was cheering like crazy. It was as if when that touchdown was scored all the problems went away in new Orleans and of course the problems didn't go away but for one very special Monday night the great ppl of that great city kinda all came together because of the Saints! Sorry I didn't mean to go on the way I did but I just wanted to let ppl know that what I watched that night was magical and showed how resilient the ppl and the city are, and communities from the whole country should have taken notes that night!
Wow what a great family moment , your comment got me a little bit just a little bit teary-eyed.
God this makes me cry. I live in the city, love the city, and it’s true...The Saints mean everything to us.
Same im not even a saints fan and im crying
Why?
Me too and I'm from the WestBank
Can we have Paul back as the commissioner? He's 5 times the commissioner Goodell is. Cowboys fan here, stay strong NOLA from your neighbor to the West.
Ima cowboys fan to. I live in Louisiana though. Great atmosphere and culture
Many people outside of New Orleans do not know how much Steve Gleason's blocked punt in the first game back in the Dome meant to the people of New Orleans. That moment was so special and I get emotional just thinking about it.
Barnaby Dodd we gave him a statue of that moment it really meant a lot to everyone
thank you for not leaving.
it would've ripped my heart out, and I'm not even from Louisiana
They learned from the Dodgers, Giants, Senators and Whalers.
i cant imagine what life would be like without the Saints and the superdome
A better place for the environment
Diet Clorox Bleach Incorrect. Sorry, try again.
@@abdiasvelasquez1185 you really tried there lmao
I can
Didnt know Paul Tagliabu (misspelled I know) was so instrumental to keeping the Saints here in NOLA. Sir, you are a new hero of mine
My home town has been thru hell..But we did come back!!!
I dont even watch fotball and i think this was amazing
The Superdome evolved into a character, almost like a fortress for New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. Before the storm, it was seen as a massive stadium, but it has become a symbol of rebirth during the recovery. When the Saints returned, the Superdome was the identity of New Orleans.
The Saints are my division rival so naturally my hatred towards the team is quite huge but even I was moved by the people of New Orleans, by the people who had the vision to see this through and the workers who didn't stop until they accomplished their mission. So for that I applaud your tenacity and your preseverence.
If any Panthers, Bucs, or Falcans fans talk crap in this comment section. I hope you realize what your making fun of, they're your rivals i get it buc c'mon tens of thousands of people DIED in katrina have some respect man...
Falcons* don't hate me, I just have OCD
+Nick P. As a Falcons fan out of Virginia, Hurricane Isabel took our house a couple years earlier. I wouldn't ask this on my worst enemy. Any fan that's going to try to make fun of this is just a troll
+ThatMortalKombatGuy especially Jets fans........
I'm a Panthers fan, I feel sad after this event
Nicholas Palermo I'm a Bucs fan and I'm sad about hurricane Katrina
Not a Saints fan even though they're my second favorite NFL team. I love San Antonio and have been there a bunch of times, but the idea of the San Antonio Saints never made sense to me even thinking about it. New Orleans Saints it will always be.
@@TimeBandit2007 before he died, Saints and Pelicans owner Tom Benson made a deal with Charlotte to let them have the Hornets team name and colors back. He approached the Utah Jazz ownership about getting their name and colors back but they said no...so New Orleans went from the Hornets to the Pelicans.
@RobdaVegasMailman that's really lame. Utah is the last place anyone thinks of when they think of jazz, New Orleans literally invented it. Utah should've been the Brigham Youngs or something.
as bad as katrina was to new orleans, the silver linning to katrina was that it helped keep the saints in new orleans.
And it was a shelter for when katrina happened too
SteelCity1981 true but I would've never wanted it to happen even if it meant Saints were leaving New Orleans
I was there 30 days after Katrina to do disaster work and stayed for 30 days. Everyday I passed by the superdome going to and from work! Those guys reroofing that place were done in a week! They were all tied off from the center point on the top and were at an angle facing downward if standing still . They were anything but standing still however ! Every time I saw them they were running back and forth carrying this or that! It gave me chills to watch them as someone who hates heights!
Keeping the Saints in New Orleans was one of Commissioner Tagliabue's greatest achievements. I can't imagine the Saints not being in New Orleans. Not even the most devastating Hurricane in US history to keep the Saints from leaving New Orleans
will never forgive Tom Benson for trying to move the saints to San Antonio during that time. it felt like he was trying to kick while we was down
It should've stay in San Antonio, after all its better, nicer, cleaner andhe is from SA and eventually will move after Jerry Jones dies ! why ! J.Jones blocks any move to SA to protect his cowboy interest in SA and south Texas.
Jezz Treras he couldn’t block Houston because it was the 4th largest market in the country and he’s BFFs with their owner.
City officials from San Antonio were back stabbers! They tried to act like they were helping give the Saints A Temporary place to play in San Antonio. Meanwhile San Antonio was behind the scenes trying to negotiate, and steal the Saints from New Orleans.
blackandgold51 If that ever happened, I can imagine how horrible this would be for Saints fans.
@@michaeldavis5775 excuse if anyone is a back stabber is your mayor.. LOL that guy rip everone else.. that city is corrupted. N.O is garbage
It was just a couple of weeks ago that my wife and I took our first trip to New Orleans. As we rode the RTA Bus (deal of the century $1.50) to the riverfront area I was straining for my first glimpse of the Superdome. When the Superdome came into sight it was an iconic view that I will never forget. I was like a 64 year old kid. Over the decades I had seen so many classic American events televised for the SD. It was where Jordan hit the famous shot for North Carolina against Georgetown, Where Bush-Quayle were nominated are two that come to mind.
Later in our stay we were able to attend the FSU-LSU football game and were totally enthralled by the massive dome. New Orleans wouldn't be the same without the Superdome. Saving it is proving to be an excellent idea.
Just to clarify....the 202 RTA bus that departs from The Louis Armstrong Airport and returns will drop you off and pick you up on several stops on Loyola Ave. It doesn't take you all the way to the riverfront. It was a 15 minute walk to our hotel room. Still not bad for $1.50 each way per person.
One of the greatest stories of all time

Woah I was just thinking about this and boom this video is uploaded an hour ago
Governor Blanco had a large part in why the government response was so lackluster.
My heart and soul belongs to New Orleans my boys went so hard for us Saints fans to this day this still gives me chills always WHO DAT NATION STANDING STRONG
RIP Gov. Blanco. You did good.
RIP Mr. Benson!
If the Saints had won that NFC Championship game over the Bears, then there would have been two Saints vs. Colts Super Bowls in Miami in a span of four years.
As a Colts fan, I'm still a little sore about Super Bowl XLIV, but New Orleans deserved it in more ways than one.
Every time I watch I tear up 😢
Fun fact my dad in this video worked on the superdome in 2006. And my brother as well last year!
Now that’s awesome!!
4:28 The moment this freezes, you can't help but look back at how it was like when Katrina hit. Now 13 years later, it's almost like a wonderland again. 😀
Because of Katrina there are Saints fans in Rio, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand all over the world.

I was at the 1st game it was amazing.
New Orleans is my adopted home. When that city is hurting I’m hurting inside. I try to get home to NOLA as often as I can. It is pretty difficult watching stuff about Katrina
Panthers fan here i like the city of new Orleans
I always tear up when I see the saints first game back. Katrina toook a lot out of people. The saints brought it back.

It's so annoying. Immature too.

4th comment
imagine the people that had to clean the bathroom got bless their noses
real one just cleaning the entire stadium would be deadly
as a resident of new orleans this breaks my heart seeing new orleans so crippled and detroyed
Same. I don’t live anywhere near the gulf coast and seeing the city devastated breaks my heart.
Welcome home saints!!!
GREAT EFFORT.
I’m glad they stayed in New Orleans 🙏
I've been a Saints fan since the season they won the super bowl
There's no other place I'd rather live. I love my home NOLA.
dont worry we got the super dome open and ready to go asap but yet whole sections of new orleans still looks like katrina just happen
Yeah I went down last year and was almost brought to tears when I saw all the open lots where families should be living and happy
Nobody should live in a drained swamp.
David Lafleche well people do live there and it will always be home, every place got their own issues
That’s mostly because people left and never came back. New Orleans lost nearly half of its population basically over night. No city could ever bounce back from that in a matter of years. Currently living in nola and lived through Katrina. Just thought I’d give a native perspective
I never lost hope that the Saints would be back
For all the people who say it was a dumb idea to rebuild the super dome instead of the levees and houses as a louisisanian going to new Orleans and not seeing the dome would be disheartening or seeing it in a state of disrepair
Btw go who dat nation even though they blew the lead to the Vikings in the play off games
As proved by the exchanges of office emails just as Hurricane Katrina was making landfall in Buras, Governor Blanco spent the first 36 hours setting up her New Orleans Hurricane Relief Foundation. The officers were n
herself, her husband and her lawyer, Robert Perot. She is gone but the foundation - which received millions from every state in the union and hundreds of countries around the world- is still listed in Newport Beach California with Robert Perrot.
I love the saints and after Katrina I was scared they would move
Love the saints WHO DAT!!!!!!
WHODAT !!!
Who dat .😡sufferin Succotash.
Who Dat Baby!
Concentrated Power of Will ❤
Not a saints fan but would have been nice to see a football team in NM!!
I remember this I live in new Orleans I was 2 years old when this happen
Saints gotta go to the Super Bowl in the next 2 season or no more Bress 😰
I was born exactly a year after that storm
WR Joe Horn deserves alot of credit for the Saints remaining in NOLA..(it could have been The San Antonio Saints)
Wow! So inpsiring
and yet oakland couldnt get a new stadium for the raiders
Every pro sports team should be forced to pay for their own stadiums, like they did in Boston.
@David Lafleche what if the citizens vote to fund a stadium publicly?
@@bigstar66 Then they're stupid. "He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches, and he that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want" (Proverbs 22:16, KJV). The city of St. Louis provided taxpayer funding to build a dome, and lured the Los Angeles Rams there. At the time, the Rams thought the dome was awesome. But, when the time approached for the lease to run out, the Rams started planting stories in the media that the dome was the "worst stadium in the NFL for fan amenities." They used that as an excuse to ditch St. Louis, and return to Los Angeles.
Another example was Tropicana Field. Originally named the Florida Suncoast Dome, it was built on speculation in 1990. The Chicago White Sox hinted that they might move there, unless the city built them a new ballpark (which they did). St. Petersburgh was left holding the bag. Although they did eventually get an expansion team, the Rays have constantly complained that The Trop is not good enough, and keep demanding a new one.
The Arizona Diamondbacks got taxpayer funding for Chase Field; but the lease is running out, and the team has been doing quite a bit of saber-rattling, demanding that a new ballpark be built, when the current one is only 20 years old! These ultra-rich owners think money grows on trees, and the taxpayers are left holding the bag!
I actually had neighbors down the street who evacuated New Orleans before Katrina
do one with detroit!!!
please do not ever move the Saints out of New Orleans. It wouldn't be right with them anywhere else

The panels on the Caesars Superdome look dusty
I was there it will never be used as shelter of last resort again.
I was there and I was a baby 😞
New Orleans had a humanitarian crisis and lost half its population... and government bails out a football team? People were being murdered in the streets and the answer is spending money on a football stadium?
They had too no way new Orleans would have came back
Who dat
I didn't want to be govnr that let saints go I can respect that
I still call them the aints but even tho i hate saints being that I’m a bucs fan i respect their fans
