The Saints' receiver Michael Thomas just caught a 72 yard TD pass.

He goes straight to the goal post and digs a cell phone OUT OF THE PADDING, and proceeds to apparently call someone.
Of course, the refs penalized the Saints for excessive celebration or something.

Any body ever see anything like this happen before in a game, or is this unique?

3. Thomas was about ten years old then,

when Horn pulled the trick 15 years ago.

Thanks!

6. As noted above an homage. He said he set up one in each end zone.

I'm just happy they won otherwise he'd be calling his agent.

The Saints have a little magic and luck this year...........
