Mine was in '86 or so. Miami v Indy at the Hoserdome.

I got to watch Jim Jensen catch a TD, and, the Dolphins win.

It was a good day :D

Hell of alot better than my second; A heartbreaker in NE
in.....'93 I think.
 
Living in Washington, I don't get too many oppertunities. In 2003, I flew down to Miami for the Monday nighter with Philadelphia. It was essentially the game that killed our playoff hopes. The outcome sucked, but it was a great experiance.
 
my first game was the snow day in buffalo in 2003 when ricky ran for 228 it snowed about two and a half feet i was sick for 2 weeks after that game
 
I can't remmeber i was so little, early 90s marino vs the oilers i believe.
 
Marino at the meadowlands. It was the last game of the season and both teams were out of the playoffs, but i had a blast and we won.
 
Mine first game was, I believe, the last regular season game at the OB vs the Patriots. It was a Monday night game and the Pats beat us. I can't remember the year right now.
 
Live, it was '96 at the Hoosierdome against the Colts.

On TV it was when I was 6 years old at my cousin's house. I asked what he was watching and he replied that he was watching the greatest football team ever and that if they won this game, which was the Superbowl, they would be undefeated for the entire season. I sat down with him and watched the Phins make history.
Been a Dolfan ever since.
 
My first game live was last year. My dad is a huge bucs fan and well hey i am a dolphins fan!!! Bucs vs. Dolphins :'( the dolphins lost but i had fun rooting for my team. lol
 
My first game was in Oakland on Halloween in 99' or 2000..we won!

What an awesome story!
 
first game

1972 --- my aunt was the head nurse in the Orange Bowl. Saw my first Super Bowl in 1971 and returned the next year for 1 game. Got to park inside the stadium and get a tour of the bowels of the Orange Bowl.Saw the players warm up and had to stay til everybody was gone---great experience.
 
Well!!

My first game life was last week KC at Miami AWESOME!!!
My first seen then play was in 87 ,Redskins at Dolphins ,we won with Marino airing it all out, didn't make the playoff and Washintong end up winning the SB, I though "we beat them, we could be the winners of a SB", still waiting:sidelol: But hell ,i will wait all we have to!! GO DOLPHINS!!:mad: :dolphins:
 
Here's a good story. The year was 1992. I was 22 years old and working at a computer tech center. I never watched football and was very content playing video games on Sunday afternoons. All season long the guys at work had a weekly football pool that I had never participated in. At the end of the season they wanted to do a winner take all playoff pool. Basically they wrote down all the names of the teams on a piece of paper and everyone had to put in $20 and draw a team. Whoever had the team that won the SB got all the cash.

They needed me to make twelve so after a little harrassing I put in $20 and pulled out a piece of paper. It said "MIAMI". I didn't know jack so I asked the warehouse manager and he told me Miami was the number 2 seat so they had a great position in the playoffs. That was when I was first introduced to Dan Marino. They had the bye and hosted San Diego the following week. Marino was on fire and I had one of the best times ever as I drank beer and watched Miami beat SD 24 to 10 or something like that.

Unfortunately Buffalo handed them an ugly loss a week later in the AFC championship game but that excitement of the week before stuck with me from that day forward. Since then I have been a Dolphins fan. I made a road trip to Indy every year just to see them play (lived near Chicago back then). My first live game was the Monday night game that Dan got hurt in the second play. He was out the rest of the season. DOH!

The Dolphins lost the next year or two worth of Indy trips before I finally got to see my first Dolphins Victory live. It was week 1 and Peyton Mannings first NFL game. I watched Dan and company score over 40 points that day while Peyton took a few sacks and didn't look near as sharp as he does these days.

Good times!
 
My grandparents live in youngstown oh, and they got me tickets to the Phins and Browns.. Great game, but it was the game Dan tore his achillies.. Browns fans are some of the worse.. The very next play Scott Mitchell threw a pick that the Browns ran back for like 99 yards for a td... We still got the W though.. Have been to 8 other games, and we have won every one of them..
