That make hasn't existed in the USA since the late 1980s, I believe. Datsun is still around in S. Africa, Russia, and some countries in Asia. It is owned by Nissan.

Let's get the 8 cartridges mailed to the neighbors house then get the mail before they do when they come. Then we never buy the three at the full price! (Sorry, neighbors, not my problem). I vaguely remember a "friend" doing that growing up and feeling very guilty about it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember listening to the game on the radio and hearing that TD KO return right off the bat. Ugh. A very inauspicious start to open Rich Stadium. My neighbor across the street went to the game. I was only 9 and so jealous that I couldn't go. They gave out a commemorative plastic gold coin for the occasion with an image of the stadium on one side. My neighbor knew how badly I had wanted to go and gave me his coin the next day. I was so stoked. It was a very nice gesture to a little kid that I've never forgotten. I still have that coin to this day. It's one of my favorite and most cherished Bills items. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll have to check with @mead107, but I’m counting on that Meadcoin for great things! I should be set for life! Right? Don’t make me doubt this! Anything that gives you a warm feeling this many years later was a special act.

I'm sure that Meadcoin is at least worth a lifetime supply of stromboli and wine. ? It was a special act and one that I'm sure he had no idea at the time would have such a meaningful impact a little kid's life. Based on your posts, I'm sure you have done something like that for more than one person in your lifetime. You are definitely a credit to this board. Kudos to you and your continual contributions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, but I wonder if any of us really know the affect we have on other people as we pass through life. We might think of some “significant” things we’d like to feel good about, but I think more often it’s the little things we may not even remember. Does your neighbor from 1973 look back on that kind act as a pass into Heaven? I seriously doubt it. Little things, every day. And now I will return to our previously scheduled topic. I loved those old programs! They had character, unlike the corporate stuff I completely ignore now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreggTX Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 I remember that game! We were still stuck in traffic when the game started, so we were listening on the radio when the Redskins took the very first KO at the stadium to the house for a TD. No wonder we lost all 4 SB's! They should have recognized that as a bad omen and built another stadium. (j/k) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah John Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 (edited) I was not only at that game, I was working at the stadium as a vendor in the stands. I was 17 in the fall of 1973 so I was too young to sell beer, so I sold the lousy pop they sold. I walked around with a tray of this things, spilling most of it because the plastic wrap covers didn't seal. I didn't make much money but I got in to watch the game. That was OJ's record year. After that year, I was 18 so I was old enough to sell beer, and I made a lot more money those years until I moved away.
