Earliest play you remember

What is the earliest play you remember while being at a game (LSU)? It was probably a significant play---but not necessarily. And how old were you?

When that Ole Miss Qb who later transferred to the Aggies while playing for Aggies went for two to win game in student section side and his pass was so damn wild and high he hit the goal post with it, cant remember his name though but i do recall it was a day game and hot as shite

Terry Robiskie up the middle against Miss St. 1972 and my first game.

1971, It wasn't a play but it was right before the start of the LSU vs Notre Dame game. A crazy dude runs out on the field and plants a skull and crossbone flag right in front of the ball as ND was ready to kick off. He then throws his tiger striped hat in the air and the crowd went wild. I'll never forget that and have been brainwashed on LSU since. That was my first game at Tiger stadium and I was 9 years old.

Eddie Kennison 108 yard KO return for a TD... I think it was around 1992. I don't think it was my first game but the first specific play I can recall. Damn he was fast!

I was at the Florida State-LSU game in Tiger Stadium in 1982 when the student section threw oranges onto the field. I was 14 years old and just remember Hilliard and James running wild. I can't recall a specific play though.

It was the pass in the back of the endzone that I think Troy Twillie tipped or intercepted on Auburns last play the night that Dinardo brought back the magic. The student section went crazy and threw every last ounce of their drinks towards the field. It was raining bourbon and coke. I was a fan ever since.

I can't recall a specific play, but my earliest memory in Tiger Stadium was me getting upset that the other team kept the ball for more than four downs. I was very young and didn't understand the concept of getting a first down and extending a drive at the time. But it was perfectly fine if LSU kept the ball longer than four downs.
I do remember numerous catch and runs by Eddie Kennison, and Dan Borne calling his name mid-play. "EDDIE KENNISONNNN!"

I was a freshman in high school on 10/09/1993 for my first LSU game versus the Florida Gators.
My first memory is Wade Richey kicking a field goal on the opening drive to take an early 3-0 lead on the mighty Gators.
Florida went on to win the game, 58-3. It is the worst home lost in school history.

I remember the night that Carlos Carson was nicknamed "The Galloping Ghost"!

1988 Tommy Hodson to Eric Fuller in the earthquake game. We ran the same play 3x in a row but he finally caught it on 4th down, 1 min left in the game to win it 7-6.
I had been to many other games prior but this is the one play that I remember the most.
I think my first game was in 1979-1980 and I remember vividly walking out from the ramp into the stands. It was breathtaking.
I'll also never forget the Orange game... LSU-Florida State in 1982 when it literally rained oranges in the north end zone after every LSU score. Winner of the game went to the orange bowl that year. We won 55-21. I distinctly remember the oranges and the fog that rolled in that night (couldn't see the other side of the field it was so thick) but no one play stands out in that game. I remember laughing at the newspaper the next day when some guy complained about the ticket marshalls letting in the students carrying bags full of oranges. "What'd they think they were gonna do with those oranges? Eat them?"

Earliest PLAY I can vividly remember in person was Harvey Williams breaking a long run against Rice in '87. Williams had a few that game. I wanna say he was close to 200 yards on only 12-14 carries.

Early in the 1969 Auburn game half back pass for a TD LSU blocked an extra point and won 21-20. My best friend's dad brought us to Tiger Stadium for my first trip to not only Tiger Stadium but to LSU. I was 10.

Famous Halloween night game 1959...not Billy Cannon's run back, but Billy Cannon playing on defense and being part of the great goal line stand that saved the game. I was 9.

My first LSU memory was listening to my grandmother's old console radio....Carlos Carson scoring 5 td's against Rice in 1977. I was 6 years old.
