Opening day loss to the Texans at home!

 

My first one:

Don't have any pics unfortunately.

 

Been a fan since 82. First game was the Baltimore game in 2000 where halftime was the Dan Marino number retiring, honor roll adding, street renaming, statue dedication extravaganza.

 

The first game I ever went to was the game in Miami against the Raiders, the one that Jay Fiedler dove into the endzone with 5 seconds left and won the game and ended up on the cover of Sports Illustrated. I had endzone seats and the entire play happened right in front of me and my uncle.

 

I had no idea you were a jets fan JT....no idea

 

Colts Dolphins playoff game in December of 2000. What an amazing experience. So glad we won the first time I saw them live.

 

First and only live game, 2009 vs San Diego in San Diego. The birth of the Henne era.

 

awesome game

 

First game I went to was in 2005 and I saw Reuben Droughns weave 75 yards through our defense on like the 1st play of the game (I think JT missed the tackle 3 times). Needless to say it was a rough day (lost 22-0), though I do remember Ronnie Brown having one of the most impressive 1 yd runs I had ever seen (broke like 4 tackles).


First game in Miami was in 2009 vs Buffalo though, and saw Vontae Davis get a pick 6, and Henne and Hartline each get their first TDs. That's my first and only win.

 

Home with my dad against harbaugh, faulk and the Colts.

faulk kept getting open put of the backfield

I was wearing a Marlins shirt

 

Well, it was in the Orange Bowl and I was given a ticket by the orphanage near my house. We took one of the buses that, back then, were provided by the team and sat in the Endzone. It was 1970 and I'll never forget that place. It was then that I knew I would be coming back to as many games as I could. Nothing like being at a game when the team is kicking ***. Nothing I tell ya, and the decibals were off the charts in that place.

I forgot to add that it was against the Raiders and Miami won the game.

 

That was one of the worst games I can ever remember the Dolphins playing.

 

My dad wasn't the biggest of fans and growing up I grew up more in a soccer household. My dad did get tickets to a game when I was 8 years old and I went to see the home game vs the Jaguars in 2003 with a friend. He got sick and we left in the 3rd quarter but other than that the experience was fun. Weirdly enough I didn't follow the team game-to-game until I moved to Mexico where soccer is a bigger deal. Lucky enough for me my first season I followed we made the playoffs.

 

heh My only game was 2009 in Charlotte against the Panthers, Thursday Night Football. At the time Ronnie was our best skill player and was excited to see him play, but he got hurt the week before. This was the first game that season that Ricky was basically by himself and he had a great game, even Henne made some good plays. Nice that the only game I've been to was a Dolphins win.

 

I'm sorry about your dad, bro.

Must have been tough growing up looking after someone suffering from the condition of being a Jets fan.

 

I was lucky...

Manning's rookie year and Dans last really "Dan like" game...he went nuts in the 4th quarter including a beautiful fade pass to Orande on 4th and 2 to keep the final drive alive. IMO I may have never fully appreciated Marino had I not seen that performance live. The velocity was there that day and his anticipation was incredible.

Since? I have been to 4 Dolphins games and they have lost hem all.

 

I forget exactly what game it was but it was in the mid '90s at Orchard Park, NY vs the Bills. Marino and Kelly were slugging it out and with the Fins on top, Kelly began to drive. Unfortunately for him, he throws a pick 6 near the endzone and the dolphins fans surrounded me went crazy. It was a good day.

 

We've had some amazing games in the past. Makes the last ten years of struggle hurt even more. This was a great franchise once.

 

November 2, 2008.

Miami 26, Denver 17

 

One of Cecil Collins better games as well...

 

T-Buck pick 6 maybe?

 

It was probably Oliver in '92.

 

My first game was a very special one. It was 1999 when the Dolphins played the Seahawks in the playoffs. The energy of that game was amazing. I couldn't hear my friend who was sitting right next to me. The Seahawks fans chanting and cheering so loud at the beginning because a sweet low grumbling after the Dolphins beat them! One of my favorite memories.

 

That game was a blowout though. I think it was 95 or 96 that T-Buck took one back 90 yards or so and that was a low scoring game at the time but it was close and in the mid 90's...

 

That's right. The one Oliver took back in 92 was over 100 yards and he was killing Kelly all game. Two or three picks...and the score was not close.

 

10-13-96 Buckley 91 INT for TD in Buffalo.
Good call Ozzy. We won the game 21-7.

 

I love that site.

 

The first game I attended would have been back in 2007 when we played the Jets in New Jersey. I went with a bunch of members from the forum (Stitches, Skeet84, SICK, Samphin, etc). We lost but it was still a good time...

 

Another note on that Raiders game, the guy sitting behind me was extremely fat and bearded and he kept screaming throughout the entire game that he knew Rich Gannon's snap count. When Gannon would go under center the guy behind me would start screaming "HUT-HUT-HUT...HE'S GONNA SNAP IT NOW!"...he was never right.

 

Not my first Dolphin game but I was at the game when Brommell broke his jaw.

That's the one we're talking about for sure!
