I attended my first game in 2007. It was against the Lions.....HOT as Hades...the tickets I got courtesy of a member of this board (Chipwich<<----forever in his debt..)...a co-worker of mine attended w/me b/c I had no clue how to get there and she is from MD...we attended the Extremeskins tailgate...had a blast there..met some really cook folks..I felt like I was at home..I took tons of pics and yes, I got to see Sean Taylor play...it was an experience to say the least ..he was hyped..I remember when we ran on the field..he was already taunting one of the Lions players then..pointin his finger and shakin his head like he was saying.."yeah I'm gonna be comin after you"...We sat in section 118 on the visitors side...it was so hot we had to take breaks inside the concourse in order to keep from passing out...I got so many great pics of him that day...less than a month later he was gone..I couldn't believe it...so thanks to the kindness of a member here I witnessed greatness on that field that day..I am so thankful I got to see ST play live! And if you thought he was special after watching him on TV you should've seen him live! WOW! Here's one of the pics I took of him that day...we spanked that arse that day..lol!! I will never forget this day!!
Hopefully I remembered how to post pics here...LOL..I haven't done that in quite some time...
I've been a Redskins fan my whole life but my first game was on November 29, 1998 when the 3-9 Redskins traveled to Oakland. It was pouring rain that day. That season was a tough one for the Redskins but they came out on top that Sunday 29-19.

1982- Strike Year. RFK. Upper Deck, I was 14 years old and my great aunt was sick so my great uncle called me to go to the game. Cold and rainy about 50 degrees. He brought 2 themoses, one with coffee and one with hot chocolate. Redskins beat the Eagles 13-9. Charlie Brown caught a long TD pass and the Eagles missed an extra point or could have tried to tie it at the end. Sloppy game on both sides.
1997- At Fed Ex- Again, raining (I always seem to get weather), Testeverde and the Ravens beat us 20-17. Not only was it raining, but the light stanchon kept water practically running down on us. We had a stupid Ravens fan that kept blowing a "duck call." Dumbass couldn't even get the right bird call. By the 3rd quarter, we were soaked and miserable and my Mom threatened to shove the duck call down his throat and he stopped blowing it.

A bad plan well executed may work. A good plan badly executed will always fail.

2000 vs the Ravens (the year they won the SB). Skins won 10-3 on a long TD run from Stephen Davis. I've been hooked ever since...been to tons of games since.

1992 at RFK vs. The Falcons. Awesome game.
Desmond Howard scored his first TD on a gadget punt return, Deion took a 99 yd KO return to the house, Michael Haynes outran Darrell Green (sill blows my mind), and my favorite player of all-time Gary Clark scored a TD right in front of me. And of course...we won.

Yeah it was pretty brutal. Worst part was that the 3 came on a Jets field goal in the first quarter. It was followed by a 3-quarter-long cripple fight.

First game was in 1961 at what was the brand new DC Stadium against the Eagles. I was 7. Parents and I walked to the ticket window and paid $6.00 a ticket about an hour and a half before the game. Rookie sensation Norman Snead threw a TD with a little more than a minute to go and pandemonium ensued. Eagles QB Sonny Jurgensen threw a TD of his own with seconds left to give the Redskins one of 11 losses that year!
First game for me was at Fed Ex against the Titans. I believe it was a Halloween night game, and probably late 90's or early 2000's. I remember Samari Rolle returned a pick 6 right as the first half expired and it was down hill from there.
First game I vividly remember was against the Vikings at FedEx, when Randy Moss left the field with like 30 seconds left on the clock haha
