Dear Friends of the JuiceBar,<\/p>\n

I grew up in New Orleans.<\/p>\n

\"images\"Our family had season tickets for the first years of Saints existence.\u00a0 My dad took me to the very first Saints game in 1967.\u00a0 I was 11 years old.\u00a0 Tulane Stadium.\u00a0 The Los Angeles Rams kicked off.\u00a0 Rookie wide receiver John Gilliam caught the ball and ran the kickoff back for a touchdown!\u00a0 A touchdown!\u00a0 Our very first play.<\/p>\n

Saints then went on to lose 13 to 27.\u00a0 It has been downhill ever since.<\/p>\n

I have been a Saints fan for over 40 years and experienced only 9 winning seasons.<\/p>\n

Having the Saints in the SuperBowl is a surreal and a bit delirious<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As you also know, New Orleans citizens look for any reason to party.\u00a0 The song Stand up and Get Crunk is being blasted out of speakers all across the \u2018Nawlins\u2019.\u00a0 Regardless of tonight\u2019s outcome, I encourage you to stream it, download it and play it on Sunday evening.\u00a0 Don’t forget the volume. If you feel inspired, do a little dance with beer in hand in tribute to those who have suffered for so long.<\/p>\n

Know that you\u2019ll be joining every New Orleanian in the country \u2013 whether they\u2019re in the Crescent City or not \u2013 whether the Saints win tonight or not \u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cLaissez Les Bon Temps Roulez”.<\/p>\n
