New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton is determined to help his team beat the Seattle Seahawks in their upcoming playoff match up. First, he painted the Seahawks’ logo on the middle of the field. Then there were reports that he blew out two speakers trying to replicate crowd noise. The Seahawks crowd has set the noise record twice this season.
That wasn’t the only thing Payton wanted to do, apparently he wanted to set off the fire alarm sprinklers in their indoor practice facility to simulate rain as well.
To prep for rain, Sean Payton discussed setting off fire alarm in the indoor practice facility so sprinklers would go off. Talked out of it

I imagine that would’ve been bad for the indoor facility and probably resulted in a few more blown out speakers.
If they loose they might be regretting it considering it is raining.
First look at The Clink, where Seahawks-Saints play. High winds and rain. Rain gear, not slacks and coat for me pic.twitter.com/d8qMvyjBvT

They did do wet ball drills.
The Saints practiced outside to prepare for Seattle, Drew Brees and WR, RB, TE worked wet-ball drills.
