My dad screaming and cursing at the television while watching UGA. Now I find myself doing the same thing.

1998 Tennessee at Vanderbilt... I was 5 years old and it was the first game I ever attended.

I was 5. One day I noticed there was a new purple license plate on the front of our family truck. I asked what it said. Daddy told me it said the LSU Tigers had just won the Cotton Bowl.

It's hurt less if I didn't mean it

I feel ya on the braves though. Been to more braves games than Alabama games. It hurts.
You can add two hawks players to dig your grave.

Either late 80s or early 90s
Ole miss vs air force in the liberty bowl, ole miss won 13-0
Or it may have been an Arkansas ole miss game in Jackson, 1 of the 2 was the first game, can't remember the score to this game but I know ole miss almost lost after leading arkansas all game but held on to win.
At the liberty bowl game I can remember asking my dad what the yellow poles (fg goal posts )were at each end of the field and asking why were they were there.

The first thing I can remember is the bonfire game in 1999. Although I was only 10 at the time, I knew enough to know the significance of the event.
My first gameday experience was a 62-23 shellacking of the Oklahoma State Cowboys in 2005 that my older brother took me to. Up to that point, I had been dead set on going to Texas, but gameday in Aggieland won me over.

Luckily I don't give a damn about them but I may as well add to Jags players. Issue is the sig line doesn't have as much impact when you leave GA

At least you've seen the Braves win the WS though, they shouldn't be in there.

My first memory is watching Archie Manning run 99 yards for a TD against Alabama in 1969. I was ten years old.

And yeah.... The braves did get one.

Truth. Honestly it's a tweet I stole. That said, the fact the braves are almost the buffalo bills with their winning 1/5 WS and their recent run of terrible playoff luck I gotta let them stay.
I was also 5 when they won and one of the few years I didn't even live in GA.

97 UF-FSU game. Was watching at my grandpas house. My cousin was a nole, gramps was a gator. Every time a big play would happen the phone would ring and the shite talking would commence.

I was 10 and I watched the Bear Bryant show after hearing Denny Chimes sound as the intro to the show. Been hooked ever since. I turned into a fan during the 3 worst years of Coach Bryant's tenure. But I was amply rewarded cause the 70's were awesome!

I remember when I was little thinking that Nebraska was a team nobody could beat. Then I saw that Kansas State beat them and was stunned.

I use to get calls from family in Tennessee. But, that hasn't happened in a while.

The '97 Florida game. I was watching it in the living room with my dad. Lsu scored their final touchdown and my dad jumped out of his seat and flung the remote into the air and when it landed, it turned the tv off and he flipped out. One of the funniest things I've ever seen.

I went to Legion Field once when the upper decks existed, way back in the 90's.
I think it was an Alabama game or a UAB game. Either way, I froze my arse off and sat in the upper deck
