Unfortunately, none. However, I have been to a few college football games (which, incidentally, would be a good subject for a thread/poll).

3, but two of them have been playoff games. Miami Dolphins vs New England Patriots in January of 1986. School band was invited, Pats beat the Dolphins on the way to getting spanked by the Bears in the Super Bowl.

January 2009, Arizona Cardinals vs Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Cards beat the Eagles for their first Super Bowl trip.

Between 20-50, had Raiders season tickets during the Gruden years for a few seasons, and usually go to one game a year for the past few years now.

None. Football doesn’t interest me.

It was Monday Night Football back in 1989…the LA Rams v. the SF 49s…Joe Freaking Montana throwing two touchdown passes in the 4th quarter to win the game 33-30…if memory serves me correctly…

Well…I was off a little bit…but it was a noteworthy game…

I voted one (Buffalo), but then remembered I also saw a game in San Diego one year, early 90s I believe.

So two. I have no idea who else was playing in the games.

None–Bears tickets are hard to get, and the weather totally blows except in September and early October. When I was at the University of Florida, I went to about 40 or 45 Gator games.
