1982 vs. Arkansas State on my 9th birthday. Went with my dad and we sat in the student section with student guest tickets we got from my aunt.

1977 ( I think) LSU 77-0 either against Rice or Wyoming. My biggest memory was how many of the opposing players were hurt...probably just cramps but as a little kid I didn't know about cramps.

Yeah, Ole Miss in 94(now that I think about it, it may have actually been 95) and Arkansas in 02.

That game was by far Jay Barker's best performance. Great game.

I remember games before the 1997 Florida game in Tiger Stadium but this game stands out much more so than others. I'll never forget my brother and I begging my dad to allow us onto the field. He just looked at my mother, who said NO, immediately. My dad looked at her, shrugged his shoulders with a crooked smile as he picked my brother and me up to jump the fence. She continued to plead with him but he just smiled and said Geaux Tigers, hunny before hopping the fence himself and we were off.

Was so young, barely remember, but it was fricking loud in BDS. Barker put up one of the greatest performances.

My gf at the time got hit in the head with an empty Jim Beam bottle after Proctor's kick and we spent the rest of the night in the ER. 12 stitches and a concussion and it took her a few days to even remember the game.

My roommate was my ride, and he had a fight with his girlfriend and left at halftime. Told me to call him after the game so he could pick me up on Cumberland Ave.
Welp, the game ends, and the motherfricker has his phone turned off. Had like $3, so I couldn't get a cab. So I had to walk 4+ miles, up some pretty steep hills, back to the apartment.
Woke him up with a bucket of ice water the next morning

Looks like I'm the old dude here.
1973 - Mizzou 13 - Nebraska 12. A great game and I was hooked for life. I was a HS senior in CoMO for a rush weekend.
First road game - 1974 Ole Miss 10 - Mizzou 0.

The first I can actually remember the opponent was that god damned game against Florida in Athens in 1995 when they were renovating the stadium in Jacksonville.
I know I went to games when I was even younger than that (based on the pictures we have) but I can't for the life of me remember much about them other than I used to steal my dad and grandpa's foam seat cushions and make a bed out of them under the bleacher seats and fall asleep while they watched the game. Load a kid up with Varsity hot dogs and chocolate milk, that'll put him out with the quickness
I also remember that, back then, UGA didn't hire out massive security teams and most of the ticket entrances were manned by local volunteers or AD workers and my dad knew them all so they'd usually let us in with or without tickets.

From '72 to '78 Missouri was college football's roller coaster.

No idea, but I know it was a Mississippi state game in the 80s. We were living in Meridian at the time, and my dad's cousins went to State. He had 4 tickets to a game, so they took me and my cousin who is a couple years younger than me. I didn't start going to Alabama games until a few years later.
I remember a few Bama games at Legion Field. We would drive up and stay at the Wynfrey for the weekend. Those were probably late 80s/early 90s.

1986 Mississippi state in Starkville, then 1988 lsu in Tuscaloosa. Then a few more miscelleaneous games before I became a student and Attended. Almost Every game between1992-96. And now 1-3 games per year. Usually, the neutral site game, plus 1 more game and maybe the championship game. I was on a stretch of attending every lsu (home and away) for the past 15 years until this year broke the streak.
