How Long Have You Been A Fan???

I guess I can't claim to have been a fan until I was about 8 - which would have been 1949. My Dad had season tickets from the time they came to town. He is gone now, but amazingly, when he retired to Florida, he converted to a mainly Dolphins fan, although he still rooted for the Skins. I could never go that far. The Redskins are in my blood, and no other team can ever approach that. Thank God for Sunday Ticket, so I can still see every play down here in Alabama. But I sure miss being at the stadium. At least I have some consolation in knowing 3 of my kids go to the home games!!
