I don't remember the year, 1995 because I believe I was 5 at the time. It was the O's against, I forget, and I remember sitting on the 3rd base side and being star struck when Cal reached 3rd base and seeing him live. That was the first of many many O's games.

Good lord....Can't remember the opponent but it was the Yankees at Yankee stadium back in about 1978.

First FB game was 1992 Pre-Season at Giants Stadium (Giants vs. Browns).

Have no idea, but born and raised in the Balt/Metro area, so it HAD to be an O's game....and then my hatred of baseball started. Thank god for lacrosse (although no one knew what it was when my sister and I would play catch in Ocean City on the beach in the early 90's).

Lacrosse is simply an awesome sport, every saw someone get beaned in the cojonas by a rubber indian ball, I have. Honestly though lacross is one of the funnest sports to watch and play.

Did you happen to see the two teams that had a fullout brawl during a game, I believe it was the Toronto Rock vs New Yorks team, all 10 players were scrapping and I even think the goalies were going at it, it got pretty out of hand and I think they actually shut down the game because of it lol.

CFL - 2002 in Winnipeg saw the Stamps mop the floor with the Blue Bombers, this was my first pro experience.

NHL - 2006 I believe it was for my first NHL game, flew down to Ottawa and watched them take on the Penguins with my dad. My aunt and uncle had season tickets so we went with them.

NFL - 2009 roadtripped down to the twin cities and saw the Vikings host the Ravens when Hauschka blew the kick after an insane comeback.

My first playoff games I went to were games 1 and 2 when the Wings took on the Penguins in the Stanley Cup Final.

Naw, most people up here are all about the puck. Honestly I can't really get into the CFL because it lacks the intensity from the fans and isn't the same as the NFL. There is also way too much punting because of the stupid 3 downs.

Saskatchewan is really into their Roughriders though because they literally have nothing else lol

I do not think the Baltimore football fan was real excited about it either but at the time we were craving pro football and they were the only show in town. I agree on the intensity...could not hold my interest.
