Not all of us can be in New Orleans catching beads, doubloons, and everything else there is to catch in the city-wide party that builds up to Ash Wednesday and 40 days of Lent. But the NFL -- and the Saints organization in particular -- almost always works its way into the festivities, one way or another.
Here are just a few of the glimpses we've caught this year, that we thought we could share with our fans who weren't able to make it to NOLA this past weekend:
