I was young so I don't remember the year, but I believe it was that Alabama/Mississippi State game were that paratrooper got stuck on the goalpost or broke his leg.

My first game was when I was 11. It was the 1987 All-American Bowl. Virginia beat BYU.

Alabama vs. Tulane

It was my freshman year at Alabama, and my first ever in person game experience. I honestly didn't know shite about football then but it didn't take me long to learn with how obsessed the entire city is about it.

Javier Arenas had a ridiculous kick return for a touchdown, and I was quickly hooked.

Bama vs. Tcu at Legion Field,back in the early 70s.
It was the game where a TCU player got his neck broke.
10 or 11 years old,sitting there between My Dad and Favorite Uncle,dressed like a midget Coach Bryant.

Amazing to think about now: My Dad was about 32yo,my uncle probably 28,we roll up in a brand new Caddy Eldorado, and park it in the muddy yard of one of the nearby houses.
My Dad and Uncle were really into music,and we were listening to everything from Johnny Horton-Motown-Beatles-Grand Funk,on the 8 track of course.
Really my first road trip away from My Mom. It was a pretty awesome day.

Florida - Tennessee , 1995

After trailing, 30-14, the Gators score 48 unanswered to win 62-37.

Wuerffel threw for six touchdowns and also ran for a score.

It was glorious. Oh, and we beat Peyton.

As a young kid went to Alabama's homecoming in 1987 against Southwestern Louisiana (now La Lafayette), which was played at Legion Field thanks to construction at Bryant Denny adding the first upper deck.

Barely remember the game, if at all, more remember all the homecoming stuff on campus (the parade, the decorations, etc.)

still remember that the LSU TE was open across the middle all day. HS friend's father gave us his seats on the 50 in the seat back section. Great gift, great game

LSU vs Bama in 99'

Goal line stand for the W. Was too young to understand the situation, I just knew we was about to win because we was up with almost no time left but had no clue we very well could have lost.

I was living in DFW in 2012 when the season opener was UA/UM. My parents came out and we watched Bama beat the hell out of the Wolverines.

Notre Dame vs Air Force. Probably 1996. We can hate on N.D. all day long but their home games are frickin cool.

Dad was able to get some sideline passes for the 2003 Louisiana Tech @ Michigan State game. Dad is a Tech alum so we stood behind their bench for the game. Louisiana Tech came back with - TD, onside kick, & TD as time expired.

Rushed the field with the team!
