I was 13 years old in 1966, first game the dolphins ever played, I WAS STANDING IN THE PLAYING FIELD NEXT TO THE OAKLAND RAIDERS BENCH, YES I WAS IN THE PLAYING FIELD, [NOBODY CARED THEN], I SAW JOE AUER ,RETURN THE OPENING KICK OFF 95 YARDS FOR A TOUCHDOWN AND RUN RIGHT BY ME, HE RAN DOWN THE SIDE LINES, BY WHERE I WAS STANDING AT THE RAIDERS BENCH...WHAT A MEMORY, I CLOSE ME EYES AND I SEE HIM RUNNING PASS ME, WITH ALL THESE HUGE RAIDERS PLAYERS SCREAMING NEXT TO ME...THAT WAS 40 YEARS AGO.
THE DOLPHINS ONLY WON 3 GAMES THAT YEAR, BUT I'VE BEEN A FAN SINCE THEN.
GO DOLPHINS!!!

welcome Flipper...despite the season we are having, you will find good company here... it's a little harder to find in this losing mess...many are at each others throat over it. I wasn't lucky enough to be on the sidelines that day, but I've been a fan since before Joe's runback.
