"The New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts will meet in the Super Bowl after two thrilling conference title games.
"The Saints beat the Minnesota Vikings 31-28 in overtime to advance to the NFL finale for the first time...." [emphasis mine]
Someone told me that if the New Orleans Saints made it to the Super Bowl, it'd be a sure sign of the coming apocalypse. He was kidding, but I've also heard that the Saints haven't been considered the 'most likely to succeed' team lately. So yeah: It's kind of a big deal, their making it to the Superbowl.

"For the first time since 1993 the two No. 1 seed in the playoffs will meet in the Super Bowl...."
I've heard that there was a lot of celebrating going on, down in New Orleans, last night.
