just a waste of money to bring little kids to games.

I don't think so. I was 4 when I went to my first game. Most of my fondest childhood memories are from these games. I certainly don't remember a lot about them, but I do remember certain things (Kathryn Scott scaring the crap out of me with her whistle, Elephant Stomp walking beside Big Al, fireworks over Denny Chimes at Homecoming-wish we still did that!). When I was making my decision about colleges, it was these memories that really sealed the deal for me.

1949 Southeastern Louisiana vs LSU. My dad was a student at SLC on the GI bill; we piled into our old Studabaker and drove over for that afternoon game.

1998, Ole Miss @ Arkansas. Arkansas won 34-0. It was freezing. And raining. It was miserable.

Your choices are : 1979,1981 or 1983

wasn't 79 because UF won the game and UF went winless in 79. Had to be 1981. Wayne Peace was their QB.
