Saints fans ‘geaux’ wild, swarm streets after NFC Title win
(NECN: New Orleans, La.) - Revelers swarmed the streets of New Orleans following the Saints' 31-28 overtime victory in the NFC Championship, which secured the team's spot in Super Bowl XLIV.
New Orleans fans were put on edge at the end of regulation when Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre, with the game tied 28-28, threw an interception in Saints territory with only seconds left. Had the pass gone incomplete, kicker Ryan Longwell would have had a crack at a game-winning 55-yard field goal.
