Dear Saints Fans,

Myself and most of America are happy for your team. We know your hometown needs this, and we want it for you. But I swear, if I have to listen to two weeks of "Who Dat??", Myself and the ENTIRE world will not only start rooting for the Colts, but we will also pray to God that he brings another bucket of holy water down from the sky and washes you all out into the gulf.

PS: Please mail your paper bag hats to Detroit.

Basically it means "who is that saying they're going to beat the Saints"
Not sure where the expression originated from - just a local thing that's been around for years. We've been the "aints" and had our paper bag years, but the fans have always, but always been faithful. The streets of the Quarter were virtually empty until that field goal was kicked to win the game. Here are some Who Dat antics for you to watch. Anything in N.O. will kick off a parade! :five:

Sounds better than those outsiders (tourists) who pronounce it New "Or-leenz". :roll: fwiw - officially and correctly (and the way I pronounce it) it is pronounced New Or-lee-ahnz. And it's "praw-leen" not "pray-leen" (praline) :2thumbs:

btw......Don't get me started on Utah colloquialisms and
pronunciations........... :haha:
