“Aints” Fan Devastated By Recent Team Success
Memories of better times.
Aint’s Fan and Gentilly resident Jordan Samson doesn’t want to be in that number.
“I feel betrayed,” says Samson. “I feel like my team abandoned me.”
“After Katrina, everybody was afraid that the team that they knew and loved would leave town.”
“In my brown paper bag eyes, they did.”
“I remember going to the games with my Dad, putting on our brown paper bags, and cheering when Wade Wilson got hurt,” Samson continued with tears in his eyes. “I guess those days are just gone.”
Although the team flirted with success in 1992, becoming the NFC West Cha-Champs, playoff success eluded them, making them one of the league’s least successful franchises.
According to Samson, that’s the team he wants to root for.
“What I am going to do with this bag?” asks Samson. “It’s got holes for eyes and a mouth. You can’t put milk in there. The structural integrity is all shot.”
