New Orleans vs Seattle. We attended the tailgate hours prior to the start of the game and by the time I got there, a friend was sucker punched and had his Raiders fan (we all went there rooting for the Saints) taken off of him, he was wearing a white T-shirt by the time I got there.

I was encouraged to "take the walk" which was a circle route around Seahawks fans, there was a lot of harsh criticism but one fan offered me a beer and welcomed our support but reminded us to have respect for their house.

Game time, I was at the opposite end of that video board in the upper decks - Saints scored early off a fumble return which I raised my arms to cheer the score where a man a few rows behind yelled "Put your fucking arms down!!" It was pretty uneventful until the end of the game where the Raiders shirt guy was singing "When the Saints going marching in" very openly and loudly as we were exiting the stadium.
