Gov. Bobby Jindal today issued what might be the least controversial proclamation of his political career: making this the official “Who Dat Nation Week” in Louisiana.
The proclamation singled out the team’s fans, who “won the championship last night for the most loyal, compassionate, dedicated, passionate, outrageous and downright loud-as-heck fanbase in the league.”
Jindal attended his first Saints game of the season on Sunday as they hosted the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC Championship. He had originally planned to stay in Baton Rouge and watch from the Governor’s Mansion, but changed his mind and decided instead to view the action from a luxury suite in the Superdome.
According to the resolution, “whether you attended every home game this year, some of the games or simply rooted for the Saints in your living room, the fans of the Saints deserve praise at the conclusion of their ‘Superdome Season.'”
