Just outside the Superdome in New Orleans is a statue of a blocked punt.

It serves as a memorial to the night in 2006 when Steve Gleason sprawled out and famously jammed the ball off the foot of punter Michael Koenen, leading to a touchdown for the Saints. More than that, the bronze work titled "Rebirth" serves as a testament to the spirit of the city, with that play coming in the first game the Saints played in the building after Hurricane Katrina.
