You remember watching your first NFL game on TV?
The first game that I recollect was "The Catch" by Clark and the 49ers when I was 7. I remembered the replays and mom and dad pointing out how the security cop in tne end zone was going crazy!.
That had to be the first...the next big memory was that next year when RIggins scored a long TD on 4th and short in the SB.

3. That's the first game I remember. It was the 1985 season Superbowl (held in 1986). My family all got together to watch the Chicago Bears win their last Superbowl. I was in Illinois still at the time, all big Bears fans. I remember more of the party than the game...but still remember watching the game.

I have no clue. The first game I can remember is one of the Dallas Super Bowls in the 90s. I was watching it at my grandpa's. I was probably 10 or so.

Can only recall my most memorable. I really didn't get into watching NFL/college football until around high school, I guess.
Bengals taking out Majkowski and some no-name QB with a funny last name "Fav-re", led the Pack' to a 24-23 win.
I was born in Milwaukee but raised in SW Ohio.

The first game I recall was Super Bowl 14-- Steelers v. Rams. In 1980 I was seven years old. I am sure I watched others before that, but for some reason this game stands out to me as the first.

Was that the year of the super bowl shuffle? That's the first game I remember, but I remember the fridge more than anything about the game.SnotBubbles;1056888 wrote:3.

Watched alot of football in the late 60's but the first player I really remember is Leroy Kelley. The first play that really sticks to my mind is Joe "Turkey" Jones slamming Bradshaw on his head.........My hero.

I was 5, Dallas over Denver in the super bowl with Tony Dorsett, he might have been a rookie. I started collecting cards the next year.

First game I ever attended was the Columbus Panhandles vs Portsmouth Spartans. I was a Panhandles season ticket holder for the 3 yrs of their existence.

Thorpe played for Oorang but he was drunk (like most Indians are) the night they played in Columbus and I missed him.
