For years the Saints have had one of the coolest pregame player introduction ceremonies in the NFL. The house lights dim and from the back of the South endzone the starting lineup gets introduced one by one as each announced player comes running through the Black & Gold inflatable tunnel squarely between the hash marks which are lined with exploding pyrotechnics and pom-pom waving dance team members all to the deafening roars of the frenzied crowd. So............
Is this still the plan for Sunday? Can the effect possibly be the same if the players are running into an empty stadium? Could such a ceremony possibly do anything to 'fire up' or motivate our players when the Superdome seats are all empty? Frankly I can't see how there could be any benefit in trying to pull off that spectacle without a house full of fans.
Does anyone know for sure how the Saints will enter the field for the game on Sunday? I wonder how our players feel about having an introduction ceremony while the customers are missing?
