News Former Falcons QB Hebert leads parade in drag, local queens weigh in
Posted by Patrick Saunders on Thu, Feb 4, 2010 at 7:22 PM
Former NFL quarterback Bobby Hebert (coincidentally pronounced "A-bear") may have spent his final years in the league in a Falcons uniform, but he's always been a Louisiana boy at heart. He was born and raised there, went to college there, spent the majority of his pro career there with the New Orleans Saints and hosts a popular radio show there.
And apparently does spastic gender-bending dances there.
With the Saints making the Super Bowl this year for the first time ever, Hebert took up his former broadcast partner (the late) Buddy Diliberto's promise to parade through the French Quarter in a dress if the Saints made it to the big game.
Here are the results.
Some of Atlanta's notable drag queens chime in.

Oh hun...bless your heart, your hair is like cotton candy and your outfit is from Sears but I'm most concerned about that nervous tick when you do 'yo dance. Awwww precious angel.

Wow, what a mess. He looks and is acting like he is clearly on lots of alcohol or drugs. But then I take into consideration that he is a football player who probably isn't trying to make drag his career. Drag is about having fun, and he definitely looks like he is doing that, even though I do think some sort of substance was in effect.

I don't get any of it. That hair looks like it came from the the half-off Halloween bin at CVS. I think if you're going to do it, show me some skin. Put on a thong and give the girls something to look at.
