  • The owner of the New Orleans Saints, Mr. Tom Benson, left us on March 15th and I wanted to check out the statue of him which stands in front of the Mercedes Benz Superdome. However, things didn't work out as planned...

    Very nice video, good history. Enjoyed seeing the statue you did video, “Rebirth”.

    I hope the WWE pays a tribute to Tom Benson with a montage on the titontron when they come for WrestleMania. That would be a awesome gesture.

    When Steve blocked that punt I found myself standing on my ottoman and screaming. I was working at 1515 Poydras across from the dome and watched that landmark get slowly repaired over a year. I remember that moment well. REBIRTH was a great name for that statue.

    • @NOLADEEJ

      Yeah man that moment was pretty spectacular!!!

    What! That was crazy that they wouldn’t let you go in. I liked the “blocked punt” statue. I remember watching that game film.

    • @NOLADEEJ

      Yeah they were pretty strict about it.. lol

    I’m sure that you’ll be making a trip to Metairie Cemetery to visit Tom Bensons tomb. Looking forward to it and to all of your videos. Thanks

    In case you didn't know where the XLIV is on the doors that's named Club XLIV where people rent it out for events and such.

    • @NOLADEEJ
      @NOLADEEJ  6 років тому

      Oh cool, I didn't know that! I bet it's pretty expensive too!

  • @ShawnRosell

    Yeah, since the event is Wrestlemania, they shut that down like Fort Knox. the Camping World Stadium was the same exact way. Ill get that statue for you DJ.

    • @NOLADEEJ
      @NOLADEEJ  6 років тому

      Hah! Actually it was some business party or some lame thing like that. I’m going back soon to see it, lol!

    Good grief, could that woman have been any ruder? Sheesh! Her tone should have been way more apologetic since NOLA residents' taxes likely paid for that statue in the first place. Alas, courtesy has become a rare thing.

  • @thecharlieinnola
    @thecharlieinnola 6 років тому +1

    Also that lady was a bit weirdly aggressive.

    • @NOLADEEJ
      @NOLADEEJ  6 років тому

      Crazy Gang no it was a separate event they were setting up for for that night

    It’s probably a good thing you didn’t get to see the statue I mean think about your history with statues didn’t want to start another fight lol

    • @NOLADEEJ
      @NOLADEEJ  6 років тому
