I was never a fan of soccer until a friend of mine bought an early edition of Electronic Arts FIFA Soccer. I learned the game from watching him play on the computer. I then tagged along to Earthquakes games and was able to follow along.

It makes me wish I had paid more attention in the 1970s, when the Strikers were playing at Lockhart Stadium in Ft. Lauderdale.

Those early versions of EA FIFA Soccer are better than the current versions, imo.

My neighbor was a big booster for the Strikers, and I got to meet Gerd Muller, Teo Cubillas, Jan van Beveren, and Ray “Hoodson”.

Saw Georgie Best’s first game as a Striker at Lockhart.
