As a Houstonian I remember this so vividly. The way our mayor at the time said lets help our brothers and sisters in New Orleans, open up the Astrodome. I think this needs to be shown throughout the country to remind us what Will power is. Not a Saints fan but I respect them most definitely.... Who Dat!! Htown got y'all back 💯
We thank you. I didn't mind seeing my Saints in Houston, just as long as they weren't in Dallas.
Sorry for the crime
I was at the Domecoming in '06... one of the greatest days of my life. Who Dat! Steve Gleason is our treasure.
This is one of the best NFL films EVER!
I was 17 living in a FEMA trailer behind my gutted out house when this game happened. Gleason's blocked punt really was a jolt of energy that you could feel in the whole city.
I’m glad you had that moment, and then a Super Bowl. You all deserved it. God bless you my brother.
Not even a saints fan and this brought tears to my eyes.
Me too we are humanity fans.
👍👍 Thanks! Being a native New Orleanean and going through Katrina and everything, that Monday night game was a day I'll never, ever forget. Very emotional to day the least
This video has an even more special meaning now with coach stepping down today. Thank you for the incredible 15 years coach, filled with memories I will never forget. We will always be grateful for what you were able to build when we were at our lowest. Who dat!
I agree with all of what you said, WHO DAT⚜️⚜️⚜️. We won't go easy on him now that he's on the Broncos though lol
The moment I knew the Saints weren't staying in San Antonio is when we played the Falcons in the Alamo dome & the game was interrupted by the cowboys score and the ppl there cheered. I'm glad the Saints came home as no where else would do our boys justice. ! GEAUX SAINTS !!
This video made me cry several times. It made me late to my work. It's OK, It's my business I sell Roses and flowers and I go to New Orleans Mardi Gras from time to time. The first time I pulled up to the Super Dome James Brown and Patrick Ewing were doing a Tailgate Party for Super Bowl New England Patriots (Drew Bledsoe) vs Cheese heads Greenbay Packers (Bret Favre). I sold all my Roses matching team colors and took my friends out for a Seafood Feast on Bourbon Street. I went there after 911 and gave Roses away to the wives of the Fire Men. My Brother was in Lake Charles working after Wilma Hit. In 2010 I went to the Super Dome the Halila Brothers and the Pinetti Brothers 2 of which welded the Super Dome back together again. We were treated like VIP. I LOVE NEW ORLEANS I LOVE THE SUPER DOME. I tip my cap to Steve Gleason for being strong. I live in Cincinnati Ohio but I love to Drive to New Orleans for the Music, Food Atmosphere, People Nostalgia Parades, WHO DAT, Sugar Bowl. It holds a very special place in my heart.

🖤🖤🖤
What a perfect time to release this. P.S. Steve Gleason is a bad ass and absolutely my hero
Let's make sure the saints stay in New Orleans even now!
wasnt that stephen hawking?
@@roughrider0195 Shut up
Ya
I not from Louisiana or Nola, but i love this city so much, New Orleans and the state of Louisiana are in my heart
I love this story. Respect and love from a French Saints fan.
I'm not a Saints fan but they're the team i respect the most. What they have done for the city and for the people is insane, and the only time i almost cried watching football was when Drew Brees broke the passing yards record in the superdome with his family in the sideline and David Baker with white gloves to take the ball to the Hall. I will never forget that scary 2006 season, i will never forget their SB win, i will never forget the Minneapolis miracle, i will never forget Drew Brees pointing to the fans in the stadium after breaking the record.
Love your comment. This was the point when I could not help but become a Saints fan myself. They've been the ONLY team since and will be so until my ultimate demise.
Coming from a Louisiana native. With no bias. I can absolutely say. That night the Saints played the Falcons. EVERYONE. Was a Saints fan. Hate them or not. It was true
That game was fixed and the Super Bowl was a gift from the NFL.
@@brad3009lol no it wasn't
@@brad3009i love how all you internet incels always claim everything is rigged but literally never have any proof 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I listen to Tony Kornheiser's podcast and he still says to this day, that the crowd after the punt block was the loudest noise he had ever heard.
I was in the crowd for that game and I completely agree with him. I've never to this day heard anything that loud in my life. I would argue it was as loud if not louder than Qwest Field when Marshawn Lynch pulled off Beastquake against my Saints.
NFL films is so damn good.
I cried like a baby. As good as this film is, people still probably can't fathom what an understatement it is. This team and this game, in particular changed everything for us. (I'm crying like a baby now just thinking about it.) WHO DAT!! (P.S. Katheline Blanco shouldn't be in this doc. She almost single handedly lost the team for us!! I'll never forget that.)
This team means a lot to us, and I'm proud to call myself a Saints fan and to be a part of the Who Dat Nation!! WHO DAT⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️
Governor Kathleen Babineaux Blanco was a good governor, but she was overwhelmed by Katrina like we all were. And she didnt almost lose us the Saints, Tom Bensons greed did. Remember he was cussing and fighting fans in Tiger Stadium?
Who else had goosebumps the entire time
One of the Best NFL films of all Time.
I’m not from New Orleans but even I remember where I was when Steve Gleason blocked that punt. I was 10 years old in a Taco Cabana in Houston and looked up just in time to watch it happen
This was more than a football game. This was the "Rebirth" of a team and a city letting America and the football world know they're back and winning the Super Bowl a few years later made it even more special.
Had to live 10 months in another town. Watch the teams split home games between San Antonio and Baton Rouge. Was there that night, never saw so many grown men cry. What a night. Will never forget the noise after the Gleason Block. Like the announcers said, we will remember this for the rest of our lives. Who Dat!
A powerful and deeply moving presentation. Thanks very much for posting.
I will never ever forget that moment in that game as long as I live.
I remember exactly where I was and who I was with.
What an incredible moment! A moment that can't really be described unless you are aware of, and genuinely felt the things that had transpired the previous 18 months.
Incredible...⚜
Watched this no less than a dozen times it always brings tears to my eyes. I was 9 when Katrina hit and remember the game vividly. Absolutely love this.
this is one of the best pieces of media I've ever seen really well done
2 dates that sit with me in coincidence:
8/29/04 - I step foot in Iraq
8/29/05 - Katrina step foot in New Orleans
The Saints Rebirth woke me up and it helped me pushed myself into my military career.
⚜️R.I.P WILL SMITH #91⚜️
I've never been to New Orleans. Have no vested interest in the Saints. But I cried like a baby when the Saints came home. Mike Tirico saying "New Orleans and its Saints, together again" gets me every time.
Nobody deserves a team (and to win a Super Bowl) more than New Orleans deserves their Saints.
If you disliked this video, you must be a Falcons fan without a soul. #LouisianaStrong
The term “adversity” is an insult to those of us that lived through that time in our beloved city. We saved ourselves out of living hell by faith and love.
“Adversity” has nothing on the experience.
2021, meet 2006.
All that being said, thank you for finally putting our beloved story of our city and our Saints on for everyone to see for free.
I remember being glued to my tv, from the safety of my own home in MD, watching news coverage as Katrina's deadly wrath consumed New Orleans in real time. I couldn't process or comprehend what was happening because I never saw anything like that before. My heart broke for the families who endured such tragedy back then, & I shed tears again watching this video.
Damn I started watching UA-cam so I wouldn't cry about my own life lmao. Now I'm crying any damn way
Sometimes, it’s about more than football.
gotta explain that to people sometimes
It’s you again!
Not a saints fan but this was inspirational what's crazy in the 06 saints made it all the way to the nfc championship game that year!
Boy did the government fail new Orleans badly. But it shows how strong of a city and its people really are. God bless new Orleans and its people. I pray all is well in the near future.
Most people don’t realize that the real fail actually began in the early 1960’s when the feds, the state, & the locals politicians made the asinine decision to dig a ditch from the Gulf of Mexico via Brenton Sound through the 2nd largest cypress swamp in the United States in my home of St. Bernard Parish, the home of my family & friends that was the catalyst of the destruction Hurricane Katrina wrought on a Monday in August 2005. So we can blame Mayor Ray Nagin, Governor Kathleen Blanco, or President George W. Bush and I guess they deserve a little bit of the blame but truthfully the blame should be placed on the politicians who 50 years ago in they’re ultimate folly decided to dig the MRGO to save four hours of transit time for ocean going vessels. The ironic part is now the MRGO is closed down to ships and a huge barrier has been erected so now SE Louisiana is protected and ships now have to traverse the 100 miles up the Mississippi River to reach the marine terminals which was the reason the MRGO was dug in the first place, The Folly of Man!!! WHO DAT BABY!!!
Rest in peace Tom Benson, Your family has done some much for the saints.
The superdome was the loudest I’ve ever heard that first game back. Just 💯 AWESOMENESS
Love my Saints! They bring a city/state together! I live in Texas and I STILL make sure everyone knows I’m a Saints fan!
Steve gleason is the coolest man ever
He and his amazing wife are the definition of what it is to be a Saint.

@@mylesiguess9899 Thank you!
Not a Saints fan but the NFL would NOT be the NFL without the Saints in New Orleans. Let’s make sure there’s always a New Orleans Saints.
Love my Saints, my city, and my state⚜️❤️🙏
I LOVE NEW ORLEANS!!! One of a kind place
I was at work when the Dome reopened. I was so mad that i couldnt watch the game but was losing my mind on that punt block.
Black and gold till I die.
Cool Lester Smooth narrating was awesome
Even I was rooting for the saints that year
This video is greatness ⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
Vikings fan here, I may still be down bad over 09, but I can understand how it means everything to the city of New Orleans
Respect🙏
@@user-dl2sq9ik8g As a Packers fan I say the same
Fabulous. Gotta go cry a while now. I never get enough of new orleans.
this is gold!
At work trying to hold back tears but once it got to the blocked punt flood gates opened no pun intended I LOVE MY CITY
This is my team and I am from the state of Louisiana, but for heaven's sake can we refer to these folks as "evacuees" and not "refugees"
They didn’t evacuate… They sought refuge.
It's hard to watch this without feeling a little misty eyed.
The human spirit is designed to overcome adversity💯
0:47 what’s is name of the music
Anyone know the name of the song that plays at 40:33 ?
I'm an saints fan now what an selfless team.
It’s so bad what we had too go through bc of that storm ! I don’t want to watch this and I can’t stop watching it! And crying bc of it ! This was a great video
How is Steve Gleason not in the HOF goddamn goodell has no respect
Are you fr 🤣💀 he only played 83 games , No Pro Bowls, No SB, he was a ok, he never had HOF Stats
he’s a saints legend… but nfl legend? no
I was in the louisiana national guard when Katrina hit. The entire state guard was in Baghdad Iraq when the storm hit
This is outstanding
5:11 blow the whistle
Who dat saints fans!
Can't watch this without cry in. Who Dat 4eva
Great story
Another block punt what Steve Gleason in Building
Shoulda had another one if not for Godell and the fixed nfl
At 56 years young ? And indoctrinated as a Saints fan from my LITERAL birth, I can say unequivocally this segment captures our city, and our team, beautifully......

#NOLAMafia
That sign NOLA till I die that’s me !
Black and Gold forever. WHO DAT
For the folks that stayed behind because they couldn’t leave my heart goes out to y’all. However for the ones that could’ve left yet stayed and endangered their kids, shame on you.
I mean it’s easy to say shame on you because of the aftermath. But most thought it was going to miss the city because of 1992 Andrew and 1998 George. The hurricane wasn’t as that bad it was levee breaking is what caused the damage. Like Deuce say at 6:27 pack few clothes as a vacation. Same thing I did with wife and 1 year old daughter going to my wife home city Atlanta. Not knowing I’ll be there until January 2006. So I understand people who stayed.
If it didn’t me so much before, it meant a whole lot more after
I remember that game the Falcons got destroyed!
Big fan of new Orleans #WhoDat

The Saints tackled adversity through a bounty program.
Lol no they didn't nice try incel
#BountyGate
Didn't happen
It would of been the perfect story if it wasn't for the bountygate. Straight up skip nfc championship game. That super bowl should of been vikings vs colts. Karma is b@#$th I tell you.
BouNtYgAtE was debunked and all player suspensions were reversed by a judge as there was NO EVIDENCE whatsoever of the Saints trying to injure opponents. Who Dat ⚜️💍
Lol okay stupid.
Speaking of b@#$th...
You realize the vikings had a bounty program that year too? Yeah, karma IS a b*tch, they got that 0-4 super bowl record to prove it. Poverty franchise
Bountygate will forever curse this Franchise. The last Super Bowl was their last and they cheated to get it.
That's a LIE from hell and the TRUTH isn't in you. Good day, carrying on....
