I grew up in Southeast Texas watching my uncles and dad root for the Cowboys since about 1982. So how long have you been a fan of the Boys?

83 @ 5

Born into it so maybe younger

Took me another 5 years to fully grasp the game and schedule of the season.

Since the mid to late 70's. Being born in and growing up around Washington DC made it that much more fun.

I'm 26. I've been watching them for my entire life, but I can't stay I was really invested in them until around 96-7. That's when I became cognizant of what was actually happening. The most fun I ever had watching the team was when Parcells was rebuilding the program. I was in for the long haul before then, but his group of players cemented me as a fan. Even if that whole thing ultimately went bust, I liked that era of Cowboys football more than Garrett's.

Since 1972. The 80's were hard to be a fan though.

As far as I can remember having a conscious choice. So about 1986 or so. First memory is Steve Pelluer completing a long pass to Herschel Walker vs the Skins.

I remember distinctly having a Dallas Cowboys themed party for my 4th birthday.
