So back in 2009 when the Saints won the Superbowl, people were going nuts in New Orleans. There was some heavy tailgating going on. I think this was before the championship game. There's this group of people who would pool their money together and go all out. They'd bring in a big flatbed trailer for an 18 wheeler, and use it as a stage under a large overpass near the Super Dome, and have a massive party with a live band. They hired my friend's band to play. Jimmy Buffett walks up and offers to join them on stage for a song. It was really cool of him.
