We played Cincinnati in 1990 in Birmingham and won the game 45-7.


Cincinnati was my 2nd game. I went to the Southern Miss. game to open the season in 1990 for my first. I think they were both in Birmingham that year. I was 9.

First game on campus was Florida in 1998.

I went to a game with my dad in the 90s (I was born in 88) against a cupcake, but I don't remember the team name. It was at Legion Field I remember and we parked in a bad area and walked.

My first game that I was aware of really what's going on was the Game of the Century in 2011 vs LSU. I couldn't really see what was happening from my seats very well, but it was still deafening up there. In fact, I developed a severe headache and nausea. Plus a hatred of jalapeño peppers (I was starving at half time and ate a ton of them on the nachos).

Man most of ya'll are young! I went in 1972 against SMU, They score a ton of TD's and all in the endzone where I was at! It was awesome seeing Coach Bryant leaning on the goal post before the game!

Cell phone lights were pretty kool at the auburn game last year. Not sure how it looked on tv. Started in the student section the best I could tell. I was on the 40 on the visitors side and it seemed to have come from there

My first game was Bama's only win of 93, the gator bowl Wasn't even a gump then, but the crowd put the seed in my mind that this was a great fan base.

I was there. We went to it on the way home from a few days at Disney. I got sick and we left the game a little early.
