The New Orleans Saints announced Thursday, SEpt. 22 that the team, in partnership with Raycom Media, has produced adocumentary entitled “The Saints Are Coming” that chronicles the emotional re-opening of the Mercedes-Benz Superdome on Sept. 25, 2006. The hour-long special will premiere on WVUE-Fox 8 in New Orleans on Sept. 24, as well as numerous Raycom television stations across the Gulf South, including WAFB in Baton Rouge.
Narrated by Jim Henderson, the longtime radio voice of the Saints, the documentary goes deep behind the scenes of the events surrounding the Saints’ evacuation from New Orleans prior to the cataclysmic landfall and subsequent aftermath of Hurricane Katrina on Aug.
