 New Orleans Saints tickets were first available for the 1967 season. That season the Saints went 3-11 to no ones surprise. This was a new team and no one should expect something from such a new franchise. Well, fast forward two decades and the city had still been without a decent NFL team. The Saints had failed to reach the playoffs every year until that marvelous 12-3 1987 season. Though the celebration was short lived, as the Saints were throttled 44-10 by the Vikings in the first round. The Saints managed to put together two more very good seasons under the leadership of head coach Jim Mora. Then, in 1990 it appeared the franchise had finally turned it around, as that season began the first of three straight trips to the NFL postseason, and resulted in three straight losses in the Wild Card round for the New Orleans Saints. New Orleans professional football fans would have to wait until the 21st century before once again feeling free to express their hope in the Saints. Drew Brees came over in free agency in 2006 and he and head coach Sean Payton became a dangerous duo, embracing the passing game and spread offense. That relationship and the right personnel paid huge dividends in 2009. The New Orleans Saints went 13-3 with the most dominant offense in the league. They demolished the Arizona Cardinals in the Divisional Playoffs, winning 45-14. The next round they took the Minnesota Vikings to overtime before winning 31-28 and earning a trip to a home game in the Super Bowl against the Indianapolis Colts. Drew Brees earned Super Bowl MVP honors as he threw for 288 yards and 2 touchdowns in a 31-17 win over the Colts. OnlineSeats has the New Orleans Saints tickets to thoroughly enjoy the continuation of the 2012 season at the Superdome.
