Message: [QUOTE="AZHuskiePop, post: 5005801, member: 1609"] My first time in AZ I went to a Suns game to see Cliffy play against the Sacramento Kings . They were totally dominate and had a 30 point + lead at the half. Which they totally blew and lost going away Chris Webber was totally unstoppable. It had to be among the most amazing comebacks or collapses ever. Teams get more resistance in a layup line . I saw both the Georgetown and Syracuse wins at the Hartford Civic Center in 1990 which announced the dream season. Most amazing defense against two great teams. I saw the Whalers blow a big lead in the third period to the Bruins in a playoff game being pummeled by objects from Bruin fans . I saw the fight between the UConn Husky mascot against the St John’s mascot in a game were we lead all the way but Perno figured a way to lose and as the clocked ticked down their fans chanted “Where is the Puppy now.” Humiliating. Last year I saw the first game in Storrs in 2023 thanks to my brand new dad at the time Branson. and the last game in Glendale in 2024 thanks to AzHuskie who I took to his first UConn game in the Old New Haven Coliseum when he was 9-10 . It was my first FF after being a fan for 70 years . Amazing experience. i was also in Hartford in 2022 on a night it actually snowed ( a novelty to me) in a game against Buffalo We started slowly Sanogo was struggling and Hawkins was cold and the game seemed stuck on a 12-12 score when Hurley went to his bench with this big guy from Bristol and a kid from Cali plus the rest of that amazing bench and in five minutes it was game over. i suspected right there this team was going to be special . I was in Yankee Stadium for Mickey Mantle Day my first hero as a kid . I had the privilege to be taken to Yankee Stadium as a small boy for an Old Timers game where this legendary men where introduced and played so I can claim having seen these men play . [/QUOTE]
