I was there for the first playoff game. 31-7 over John Elway and Denver. Christmas Eve 1983. I remember all the Christmas lights shining bright on the drive home. I was 12.RaceBannon said:

I'm in for $5 for rolling this one out again, if some enterprising one would find a billboard near Montlake open for display -

BOC blew away the field, btw. -
My first Seahawk game was in '85 when they lost to the Cheatriots way before Belicheat, Brady Bunch etc. I think I went to a Mariner game also in the mid 80s with some family friends, but football>>>beisbol. Seeing them beat the Broncos in 1988 was awesome. I remember there were KXRX Elways is Mr. Ed t shirts. I wanted one so badly. Seeing the Mariners with Griffey, Johnson, Edgar, Buhner etc. in the 90s was fun. KJR was pretty good back then. It wasn't Ashley and the fat dude who made the Mariners for 30 games struggling through a show...

For some reason I liked Mariners games in the Kingdome better than ones at Safeco.
It helped that the late 90’s Mariners had sluggers and when you attend a game, you want to see Homeruns. -

Watching it get blown up from a condo on First Hill in 2000.
Other than that, I don't have a ton of great King Dome memories having not been born and raised in the area. Went to a few Ms games in college and saw the AFC West hawks play #MyBolts. I rooted for SD. -

Totally agree. Ball dies at Safeco and it's too damn cold at night.RoadDawg55 said:For some reason I liked Mariners games in the Kingdome better than ones at Safeco.

He was known as having a booming voice and people would come up to him to ask if he was using a microphone-speaker to be so loud.
