The fan with the whistle needs to be thrown out of the stadium - or murdered. Too much?

Can we take that whistle from whoever keeps blowing it? Please. #NFCChampionshipGame

Why aren't the #saints being penalized for that fan blowing a whistle every 2 seconds?

It turns out, that's a man-made whistle. A notrious Saints fan, known as "Whistle Monsta" is the one behind all the madness.

Those asking about the whistles from the crowd on saints/rams game.  The Saints have a super fan nicknamed "whistle man" .. no joke .. have met him many times, great guy. He wears a whistle costume to games.  He has the loudest, most piercing natural whistle I have ever heard.

If you could only pick one, which one would you mute for the rest of the game? #LARvsNORT: Joe BuckLike: Whistle Man pic.twitter.com/qdgzrpoECU

The Saints had quite the home-field advantage on Sunday. 

Not only was the Whistle Monsta driving everyone crazy, the Saints had the stadium going nuts with the Choppa-Style dance, the players' and fans' adopted anthem of the team, taken from a 2003 rap song.
