"A Detroit Lions fan threatened to blow up the Superdome during the team's Jan. 7 playoff loss to the New Orleans Saints, according to federal court records.

Jackson resident Shawn Payton called in bomb threats after the Lions fell behind in the playoff game, according to an FBI agent's affidavit filed in a Louisiana federal court.

"Hi, I want you to relay a message to the sideline, if your stupid Southern team keeps winning, there will be reper… severe consequences, OK?" Payton, 34, told a Superdome employee, according to court records.

During a second call, the caller threatened: "I will blow up your building."

According to court records, investigators traced the calls to Payton. He expressed regret during a phone interview Monday and worried about losing his cooking job at McDonald's.

"I feel bad for making some stupid phone calls," he said."
