Have you been wanting to see your New Orleans Saints in action? The Saints are returning home from their monthlong training camp in Irvine, Calif., and they'll be hosting two open practices this week for locals to come out and see the team. This will be your first opportunity of the offseason.

First up is an open practice at the 30,000-seat Yulman Stadium on Tulane's campus. It's free to attend, but tickets must be claimed in advance. The open practice is scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 20 at 7 p.m. CT so act quickly.

There are also some tickets available  for their second open practice at the Caesars Superdome on Friday, Aug. 23 at 1 p.m. CT. Just like the Yulman Stadium practice, this event is free and open to the public, but fans must claim their tickets ahead of time.

It's been a long time since locals had the opportunity to see their team in person. The Saints moved training camp to sunny Southern California to accommodate large-scale renovations to their training facility in Metairie, so it'll be good to have them back in the area. They have spent the entirety of their preseason on the West Coast. Even their preseason games were in Arizona and California. During their practices in Irvine, the Saints didn't open any practices to the public.

Everything leads up to their final preseason  game with the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, Aug. 25 before roster cuts on Aug. 27 and the regular season  kickoff game against the Carolina Panthers on Sept. 8. It'll be here before we know it.
