First and last games at old Cajun Field

[CajunVic]

There was not one bottle that didn't say Jim Beam on it during the reign of ol' Toothpic.

First game, 1999

. . . but there were plenty flasks with Wild Turkey in them . . .

Absolutely. Just referring to 'the era around my importing days. To this day I still can't believe how lucky the students are to buy a cold one in the Swamp, while we had to go to the outhouse to make a damn drink.

Dang y’all drank that high priced stuff.

Dang y’all drank that high priced stuff.

. . . when you live at home, you can afford the good stuff . . .

First game 1976. My older sister and husband were living at Vet Village. My Mom drove me to Lafayette, dropped me and a load of groceries off to them for the weekend. We walked from Vet Village to Cajun Field for the game. Can't recall who we played but Cajun Field seemed huge to me at the time.

First Game for me was in 1993 against San Jose State led by QB Jeff Garcia

I was a baby living in Vet Village when Cajun Field opened went to many games that I don’t remember. My first memories were Roy Henry days. Then in the late 80s and early 90s as a student I went to many more games that I don’t remember. Lol.

….OK here we go….who made the first Cajun tackle in the stadium??? Who scored the first defensive Cajun TD??? Not sure of this one, first opponent….Beau you should know!

Nope. They didn't sell beer back then. To much bourbon or gin.

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.

So, who else is with me, that has been to the first and will be there for the last?

Me and you for sure!!!
