What was the first NFL game you ever went to?

[Zipgun]

The first football game I ever went to, was Jets vs. Colts at Shea, in the snow, in 1976. I don't remember the score, or who even won (hey I was 5 years old) but I did get my first taste of blackberry brandy that day. And when I asked my dad "What's that smell?", at least he was honest and said "That's two guys smokin' a joint behind us".

Good times.

Bengals @ Browns, Old Cleveland Municipal Stadium, 1979. Browns came from behind and won 28 - 27. I was 11 and had just recently moved to the city and was rooting hard AGAINST the Browns at the time, jut because I was still pissed about being transplanted.

By the end of the day, I was converted, and have been a Browns fan ever since.

Ahh yes, underage Brandy drinkin' on a cold day watching football! It's amazing how easy it was to bring in then! My step dad had a big-ass leather case he carried his in... with GLASSES included! Good Times indeed!

Jets vs Steelers in 1983. I believe it was the last Jets game at Shea and the end of the Richard Todd era. They lost like 34-7.

Don't be fooled by the Rocks that I got, I'm still Jimmy from the block.

Jets vs The Indianapolis Colts in 1986, when the Jets won the game they were something like 9-1 at that point...and the whole thing went downhill after that

Only been to one. I think in '96 at Foxboro vs. the Colts.

The Pats broke the quarterbacks nose.

The infamous Snowball game, Giants vs Chargers. Cold, snow all over, loss by Giants and fun was had by all. <P> <P>

November 28, 1971

Joe Namath on the sidelines for 19 straight regular season games, made his return in the second quarter against San Francisco and tossed for 358 yards and three TD passes as the Jets barely fell to the 49ers, 24-21
