Re: Memories that last forever
I was 12 years old and was already hit hard with the fever when I was surprised with tickets from a family friend who had season tickets. First game was Arkansas 2005. The experience was cloud nine the entire time. Looking into the stadium from the bridge and hearing the band play as the dawg walk took place on a crisp October morning will always be imprinted on my mind. The seats were directly above where the Dawgs came out of the tunnel at the time so you could practically see the thread count of the jersey and every smudge mark on the helmet as they came out. It was a surreal moment because I remember for warmups I received a head nod and finger point from the likes of Greg Blue, DJ Shockley, and Danny Ware as they were walking back in the locker room from warmups. I was rallying the troops like I was in my living room haha. The game itself required my voice as Shockley would go down early and the Dawgs had to hang on to a 23-20 win against Darren McFadden (thank God he was only a freshman). Ironically , I ended up getting tickets the following week in Jax, but nothing compared to the first trip being between the hedges. I have a 6 and 3 year old now and I can't wait to have them experience it all for the first time whenever that day may come.
