Seagrams anyone?

No I'll have a Jim Beam.

We would usually have a light practice on Sunday afternoons after a game. The clean up crews would line up all of the liquor bottles on the seats and it looked like the stands were full. We would laugh and wonder what it was like to be a student watching us play.

I was 13 back then. First game was against Santa Clara. I watched that game in the upper deck and the next one will also be up there. By far the best seats in the house. I’ll miss them.

You and me both.

Yes indeed. We walked from our dorms (McCullough, Roy, and the others) to the women's dorms. Down floated some beauties!

Fun times.

LMAO. That was before cell phones and text. Did yall just have to use your male houling calls to get them to come outside or it was a set time/day this would occur? I need some more details!

There were also jock raids, where the girls would visit the male dorms...

Way before cell phones, even the original ones.

The ladies knew we were on our way and they were ready. I really enjoyed my life on campus and made most of my classes.

First game I remember attending was Alabama in 90. First year our family had season tickets was either 92 or 93.

Good times....

Memories....like the corner of my mind....or something like that!

First game was 1988 vs USM. Favre vs Superman. Favre won that one. I had never seen someone throw a ball so hard in person.

First game as a student, Alabama 1990. Haven’t made it back for a game since we moved away 3 years ago. Will definitely try when they open the new stadium.

Imagine that, events able to take place without needing the administration to get the word out ... Students were capable of passing the word themselves.
