Many people braved the rain outside and the long line inside the Northshore Square Mall in Slidell to get their Super Bowl XLIV DVD autographed by veteran safety Darren Sharper Tuesday. Three die-hard Saints fans the first in line at 6:45 a.m. for the noon event. The store showed a Saints’ video for fans while they waited. One of those early risers was Olga Wilson who stood in line for five hours. Her diligence paid off, though. Wearing a Darren Sharper football jersey, Wilson was able to get five DVDs signed by Sharper. The DVD was on sale at the FYE store inside the mall.

" I am so upset I missed the signing of the DVD's with Darren Sharper due to illness. I am still excited about the great job and victory win. I'm just glad the Lord blessed me to be here that day to see it with my own to eyes. May God bless these boys again next season. Love you boys. "
