1989 opening game against Ole Miss. We lost.

1989 Ole Miss .Gators lost the game and Galen Hall lost his Job that year. Was on the sidelines for the game.
After the loss, Steve's name was already talked about as our next HBC.

Versus Vanderbilt....1969. Touchdown Tommy Durrance had a big day, more so than Reaves and Alvarez. At least that's what I remember. Gators win 41-20.

Sept 1, 2001 vs Marshall (10 days before our world changed). Section 24, Row 13, Seat 13 (I saved all my tickets). I remember more about waking up early and waiting in a big line for unsold tickets than the actual game itself (I was unable to get student tickets because this was back when there were more student requests than tickets).

1965. Don't remember which team. They all blend together.


I had to google to figure out which one. No way they archive back to '65. :lol:

I can't remember. Probably the first game that the South Endzone expansion opened. That's the first year we had season tickets.

2009 Tennessee game. My first Gator game overall was 1999 @ Kentucky, but the combination of living in Virginia most of my life and playing football for 13 straight falls, and I wasn't able to make many games until I got out of college. Did get to the 2008 SECCG game, though. Best day EVAR.
