I have two. My first game in tiger stadium was with my grandfather. It was Arkansas game and we were in a box with his work. I remember getting all the free ice cream I wanted. I was probably 7 years old. Had to be around 95-96.

The second game I remember going to was Vanderbilt. Not sure exactly how old I was but probably around 8-9. My dad was dancing acting a fool and I told him he was embarrassing me. Got the arse chewing of a lifetime. 96-99.

LSU v Washington in a resounding Victory in the Early 80s.... playing football with friends and family in the parking lot and looking foward to the train passing by... always curious who we would run into in and out of the Stadium...

Late 70's Rice or Wyoming. Not sure which was first but Carlos Carson went off. I believe it was 70 or 77-0

Vaguely an AU game in 1980 I believe.

Most definitely remember the FSU Orange game in 1983.

The game where the fans threw oranges on the field when our win put us in the Orange Bowl. Charlie Mac was the coach. No idea when that was. Lol

LSU vs Idaho 1998

I still remember listening to info about Hurricane Georges on the PA system in the stadium. We originally evacuated to BR but we beelined it to Memphis after the game

1979 Rice. I was 10 years old. I went with my grandfather. He played on the 1929 team & they were celebrating the 50th anniversary of that team. The team went on the field at halftime to be recognized & I got to see my grandfather on the field of Tiger Stadium. That will be a memory I hope that I never lose. He was a great man & the reason I went to LSU.

Early 90s. I was maybe 3 or 4 and went to fan day with my grandparents and uncles. My grandfather introduced me to Wade Richey, who was the kicker at the time. I become a fan of his and followed him through his NFL career.

My good friend/neighbor invited me to come along with his family. We sat in the East sideline section and I didn’t know any of the cheers because I didn’t really care about football yet.

I must have been a freshman or sophomore in high school.

Turns out giving up a ton of yards to Idaho was a sign of things to come for us defensively that season.
