Why this petition matters

Started by Don Kiebels

Champions Square does not reflect today's values and beliefs. What we name things, our features, reflects history, but also reflects values. And as history changes, so do values. And certainly, something bearing the name 'Champions' in 2011 is different than in 2022. Saints fans everywhere deserve better.

We need to acknowledge that the time is right to move forward. We also need to acknowledge the name of the square should not be tone deaf to the world around us. Changing "Champions Square" to "Remember That One Time Square" will enable Saints fans to reminisce about the good old days for generations to come without feeling ashamed by an archaic word such as Champions.

Today's Saints fans constantly talk of the 2006-2021 Payton-Brees era so it only makes sense to name the square something that harkens back to it in a more appropriate way for modern times.

That Super Bowl win is becoming fuzzier by the day as we move deeper into the Dennis Allen era. "Remember That One Time? Square" will more adequately signify where we are today as a people in New Orleans.
