Message: [QUOTE="HooperScooper, post: 5292951, member: 10"] Non-UConn game I'll go with Super Bowl XXI. Only because of the back story. We were Giants fans growing up and they were horrid during the 1970s when I was a kid. My father told me and my brother that if the Giants ever went to the Super Bowl we would go. Figured I'd never see it in my lifetime. Then Lawrence Taylor and Bill Parcells came along and they got better in the early 1980s until 1986 when they were the favorites to win the Super Bowl. They beat the Redskins 17-0 in the NFC title game and I immediately called my father and asked, "Are we going to Pasadena?" He said he'd buy the package (tickets, flight, hotel) the next day and call me to let me know. Game was close in the first half and then the Giants blew out the Broncos in the second half. We all cried because we thought we'd never see it. [/QUOTE]
