Football Heroes

This year, the Mardi Gras Krewes decided to feature New Orleans' favorite heroes, Saints players. Here's a picture of fan favorite, wide receiver Joe Horn (87) along with starting center Jeff Faine (52) in the Endymion Parade on February 17, 2007. Quarterback Drew Brees was the Grand Marshall of the Bacchus Parade the following day. He wore a black tux. The day after that on Lundi Gras, the Orpheus Parade featured head coach Sean Payton wearing his signature Saints visor. On Mardi Gras Day, Joe Horn rode in the Zulu Parade and former Saints quarterback Bobby Hebert rode in Argus Parade in Metairie, Louisiana.
