18,000 to 20,000 Eagles fans in New Orleans??? {just a rumor - merged}

20,000 people wouldn't have been able to get into the city in such short notice, nevermind find anywhere to stay. This one just isn't true. The tickets that they MAY have gotten their hands on would be from ticket exchanges from Saints season ticket holders, but this would be in the hundeds (at most) and not in the thousands.
