How did you become a DAWG fan?

I just read where @pgjackson explained how he became a fan. Good stuff. It's cool to see where/when the foundation was set for everyone.

We moved to Georgia when I was 7 and Herschel was a freshman. I was young, but dad would always work in the yard on Saturdays and have the games on with Larry. I would go outside, see his excitement, many times fueled by a few Old Milwaukees, and it stuck. I would have a nerf football that was hardened by leaving it out in the rain (a must) and replay every play.

It was easy as the first time I became a fan at such a young age, my team won the National Championship.

I never thought that it would take forever to get another one, but am glad it happened!

    Have you watched Georgia Tech play?
    Easy decision when you go to a school with no football team
