My fiance scored me tickets to the panthers vs Dolphin game this saturday. I bit pricey at 250 dollars for a pre-season game at an away stadium when I would rather have watched it in Dolphin stadium, but we live outside of Charlotte and she does really love me. I don't think panther fans are that rude so I think I should be safe wearing my Dolphin gear. Anyone else remember their first Dolphin game. To me anyone in a Dolphin uniform is exciting to me. I told her I might cry tears of joy or act like a star struck teen when I see the dolphins take the field. Hey I love my fins win or lose.
My First Dolphin Game Ever. Anyone Remember Their First Phin Game

Man I was trying to find this game online....it was in the 80's in the OB, might have been a playoff game. Against the Browns. We came back from 21 I believe. Can someone find this game? I sat behind a friggin pole, but was so excited to be there. I even impressed myself by yelling the whole game.
Thank you for helping me bring back this memory. A Dolphin Since Moment!

Yeah I remember that game lost to New England in the AFC championship game that following week. This was when that Dolphin D took a turn for the worst for many years to come. That superbowl was ours, the bears couldn't beat us that year. Always believed that we looked past everybody and just expected a rematch against the bears in the superbowl.
I was 15, and ended up stuck at a church function during this game. I stashed a radio inside my suit jacket, took apart a set of headphones, and ran the wire up my sleeve, so the speaker was in my hand. Then I sat in the balcony and flashed scores to two or three other Fin fans in the audience.
I remember it was in the Orange Bowl. I was 6. We beat the bills. This would have been in '80. So amazing. Had my Phins t-shirt on. Very cool. Previous Xmas, my Dad made me a fan by getting me a Dolphins bike which was my first bike. He worked with the 72 team a lot and eventually had Griese over for drinks at the house and had him sign the little card thing between the handlebars. Phan for life.

My first Phins game was in '84 vs the Raiders. We lost. But I did get to see Marino break the touchdown record for one season. Ironically, the game is featured in a book called 25 Years of NFL History. There is a picture of a Marino interception and in the background you can see my dad and me.
$250 for preseason? D. Zam.

My first fins game was last year actually. Season opener against the Pats. Sat in the third row at centerfield. What a game that was. Unfortunately a few fans nearby heckled the **** out of me to sit down when I was standing virtually the whole time. I rallied some nearby Phans to stand with me, but it will make me think twice about how much $$ I choose to spend on tickets and where I sit.
Yeah man she brought the tickets months ago and she just told me last week what she paid. I didn't want her to feel bad but I would have settled for 100 dollar seats at Dolphin stadium
and drove the 12 hrs from Charlotte to Miami and gotten a cheap 100 dollar hotel for a few nights. Still would have came out better and lived my true dream of a game with my Dolphin family in Miami.

I don't actually remember my first game but it was at home vs the Jets in 1972. I was all of 7 months old.

1983 playoff game against NE in the OB. This was the snowplow revenge game and the year we won the AFC. They even had a small pile of snow (at least it looked like snow) on the sideline and a guy dressed in prison stripes on a plow. I was in the 2nd row of the upper deck, on the 40 yd line towards the closed end it was louder than any concert I've been to. My ears rang for a few days after.
The first time I saw a Jet-Dolphin game was 1990. I was 15 and got season tickets for the first time. I remember looking at the sheet of tickets and being so excited for that Miami game b/c the teams had played so many great games in recent years w/ O'Brien & Marino. Miami was really good that year and we were in year 1 of the bruce Coslet era. we had lost at Miami(I think the first time we ever lost at Joe Robbie) earlier in the year on a late Marino TD so I thought we'd have a chance at home. we had corner EZ seats not far from the field and I remember mark Duper signing autographs for fans before Miami would beat us 17-3 on a chilly, not cold day.

Don't remember what year but it was mid 70's Miami @ Baltimore Colts and also guys always remember pre season tickets are the same price as regular season tickets its the biggest scam ever...
