Free Today: New Orleans Saints Tour Comes To Escambia
July 27, 2010
The New Orleans Saints “Championship Tour” is coming to the Pensacola Civic Center on Tuesday.
The tour will feature extensive displays celebrating the Saints’ 31-17 Super Bowl XLIV victory over the Indianapolis Colts on February 7, 2010 — including the Lombardi Trophy.
The Championship Tour will be at the Pensacola Civic Center Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Admission is free.
“Our fans are the inspiration and foundation of our success, it is important to me and our organization to share these symbols of our Championship with as many of our fans throughout the Gulf South as possible,” said Saints Owner Tom Benson.
“We are excited to share the Vince Lombardi Trophy and our World Championship with the most deserving fans in all of sports,” said Saints Owner/Executive Vice-President Rita Benson LeBlanc. “Nowhere is the bond between a team and its fans stronger than with the Saints and our fans in the entire Gulf South region. We are very proud of the positive attention this Championship has brought our city, state and region and encourage all of our fans to come celebrate their Championship with us.”
Among the notable displays that will be included on the tour will be: The Vince Lombardi Trophy, a Super Bowl display featuring Saints’ MVP QB Drew Brees’ Super Bowl helmet and jersey as well as other memorabilia from Super Bowl XLIV, a highlight video, the Halas Trophy (won in the team’s 31-28 NFC Championship against the Minnesota Vikings) and photos taken by official team photographer Michael C. Hebert.
There will also be displays featuring the official Super Bowl ring, and an area to view memorabilia celebrating the playing career of Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee LB Rickey Jackson. In addition there will be exhibition areas including the presence of the official cheerleading squad of the Saints, the Saintsations, and an interactive element featuring Saints Experience games, as well as displays by the Marines and officially licensed Saints memorabilia and ticket information.
