First game I attended was in 2009, Mizzou vs kansas at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, MO. Sat in box suite near the 50 yard line. Mizzou was trailing kansas 39-36 and had just punted the ball away with under 3 minutes left. Mizzou obviously hadn't been able to stop their offense so we left to beat the crowd assuming they'd get a few first downs and run out the clock. However, while walking to the car Mizzou sacked their QB for a safety to make it 39-38 still trailing. We listened on the radio as Mizzou drove the field and as time expired we kicked a field goal to win 41-39
My first game in Columbia was 2010 Mizzou vs San Diego State. #25 Mizzou was trailing at home 24-20 with 51 seconds to play in the game. I had already ripped up my ticket and left the stadium in a blind rage. While leaving the parking lot we had forced a punt from SDSU and had 51 seconds to drive 68 yards since a FG wouldn't work. I was almost back to the car when I heard the stadium erupt. Mizzou avoided the upset at home, and both teams would go on to win 10 games.
