might not be the first, but the first i went to 'by myself'. In the early 70's i loved Fran Tarkenton....Minnesota came to Buffalo for a snow game(Chuck Foreman hurdled over a snowball that was thrown). I was in 7th Grade at AV Zogg MS in Liverpool. My folks let me leave school early, put me on a greyhound, made me sit directly behind the bus driver. Took the bus to buffalo, my Aunt and Uncle picked me up. We went to the game in their season tickets, and there i was in my Purple and Gold toque. I loved the Bills, but Tark was my man! One of my fondest memories
