don’t even remind me.

I was AT the game known as The Drive. In the Dawg Pound (one and only time) next to two guys wearing togas. I think only the alcohol kept them alive, it was so flippin’ cold down there, with the wind off the lake.

And...just in case anyone wonders: That field goal by Rich Karlis was NO GOOD. I was right there, dammit. My sister and I got so loaded after the game, I think our cousing was called to pick us up. I don’t remember. I also seem to have “lost” the two days afterwards.

I had season tickets for the Tribe from 1991-2004, so I was able to witness the World Series follies. I was actually at the game where the ball bounced off Canseco’s head for a home run. Funniest thing ever. LOL

Our family had season tickets at the Coliseum from 1974-1977 for the Cavs. Yeah, The Miracle of Richfield year.

After all the money my family has poured into sports teams, they owe us, don’t you think?

meh

My father had season tickets for the Browns. My big drinking moment was Red-Right-88. I have never gone from so happy to so sad so fast! I froze my butt off that day.
I remember the miracle at Richfield! I was rather young, but I really remember the tiny little shorts they used to wear, I don’t even know how they managed to play in those! My best memories were the Mark Price years. We never looked so good, but somehow Jordan always found a way to destroy us at the very last second (argh).
Do you remember exactly where the colliseum was? My husband and I live in Broadview Heights (right by Richfield)
we keep trying to figure out exactly where it had been, but we cant remember. All we can really remember was that it was really near the off-ramp. We could see it from the freeway, but that’s it. Do you remember?
