What is your 1st memory of Husky Football?

LostDoogReward

Unfortunately for me it was the 1994 road game against Oregon. I was only 5 at the time and just beginning to understand football. I knew what a touchdown was but little else. I vividly remember as my family and I were walking to the stadium, there was a guy on top of his RV taking the biggest piss I've ever seen to this day. He must have been holding it in for quite a while because that motherfucker got some distance. I also remember some duck fans yelling things at us, but can't recall what was said. We were sitting in one of the endzones, and was fascinated with the net raising up behind the uprights because it was pretty much all I could see. I don't remember much about the game until the very end. I know my dad was chirping some quook fans because we were driving and about to put the game away. Then tHe pIcK happens, can't see shit, we lose, I was too dumb at the time to realize it and was asking my parents why we were leaving. The fucked up thing is I remember that green and yellow retard unleashing his bladder better than anything else that day. Probably for the better.

First live game, 2000 against Oregon State. Sat in the closed end zone free seating family section because we were/are pour. I remember the game feeling more like a “we survived” game than a big win because OSU wasnt respected until later in the season.

I made a shit ton of confetti that night.

Selling PI papers to get a free pass into the game at halftime. Or alternatively not selling papers, jumping the chain link fence and outrunning the Pinkerton guards to the old end zone bleachers. Wonderful days.

The only answer which is acceptable here would be walking to Husky Stadium with my two dads on a crisp fall afternoon.

And....

Early 90's....I was maybe 10yrs old and feeling the upper deck shake on 3rd downs above us and thinking i was going to die. The other memory which stands out is Mario Bailey laying out for a Brunell bomb. Lou Gellermans opening line.....

1983 - When I first moved here to live in my sleeper cell in Lake Forest Park. Huskies were the talk of the town. Then 1984 rolled around leading up to the 1985 Orange Bowl. I was hooked.

My first game was the 1987 Apple Cup. I was a senior in high school and one of my brothers was at UW at the time. The student section was totally out of control back then.

I went to UW in the early 90's and it was just fucking glorious. @YellowSnow is jealous.

Don’t have a specific memory but my hardcore fandom started around Tim Dwight destroying us in Sun Bowl

I was nine or ten. My mom had a record-setting brain surgery at UW medical. Four tumors removed in one surgery. She was expected to lose the use of most of the left side of her body, but the surgeon pulled off a miracle. She was recovering from that surgery, and the window of her recovery room looked right down onto the field. One day we took a walk while she was sleeping down to the stadium. As a poor kid, this was going to be the closest I'd get to a giant stadium like that for another decade at least. So we were really excited just to be up close to it. Just about shit ourselves to find one of the gates slightly open. We let ourselves in and spent an hour running around the field pretending to be players, jumping the hurdles on the track, running up the bleachers, etc.

One of the players was doing a workout of the field. No shirt, hugest, most ripped dude I'd ever seen in my life up to that point.

Huskies won the natty that year, I believe.

The cheerleader, not Cody - though he was a strapping handsome young buck. Amirite, @Dennis_DeYoung ?
