Poll: Were You Born Before Or After Super Bowl XXX?

[ifixoldhouses]

The Cowboys won the Superbowl the year I was born '71, also my wife '76 , and my stepson '96. I lived right outside Dallas for awhile in 1989, been a Cowboys fan ever since.

The Cowboys were in the Superbowl in 76 anyway, Steelers won

I bet alot of us looked alot different in 1996

Other than the extra weight due to my wife's infatuation (pun, sadly, intended) with pasta and a bit of grey in the beard, I look startlingly close to the same.

same here I was born in 1970. do not remember the first steelers loss but I remember the second one. I took the three 90's superbowls for granite. I really did not think that would be the last time in 1995 that the cowboys would not make another one. right now I do not believe that they will ever make another one.

Keep cheering. We will make it. Soon.

The first game I went to was played in the cotton bowl with dandy don under center

 

[dogberry]

I was born before the last gladiatorial games in Rome.

They lost to Greenbay in the Championship game in Dallas 1966 season. Then won the Super Bowl in my home town of New Orleans 1971-72 season, then again in my home town New Orleans 1977-78 season, and then when I moved to LA they won the Super Bowl 10 miles from where I lived in Pasadena 1992-1993 season. So I am almost positive I was born before January 1996.

Any chance you might move to the Miami area before next February?

Before, but I was 6 for the last super bowl and don’t really gave any strong recollection of the “Glory Years.” I more remember watching the endless cycle of horrible QB’s when I was old enough to be a “true” fan and understand what was going on. Good times thinking Chad Hutchinson could be the future lol

It was the SS so I'll take it back a little. I had a 66 Nova SS.

Ha, I had a '66' Chevy II station wagon that was pretty mint, the old alcoholic's brothers car he'd died & and the 3 nephews all wanted that car and it was gonna be an never ending fight over it, so the deceased alcoholic brother sold it to me 'cheap' but with no title, and, as I was living way back in "gobbed" ground( kinda' reclaimed land of former coal strip mining operations from the 1940's) riding herd over 30+ oil wells production, I used it to service those wells in the summer time,,,er,,,after proper modifications of opening up all 4 doors& backing up in reverse up against big pine trees, thusly employing redneck removal protocol #1 to expedite unnecessary incumbrances,,,,er,,,and also installed a hillbilly moon roof by means of an wood axe,,,yessir! I damn sure did,,,,I' ve had it loaded up with 7 or 8 guys& gals on Sunday afternoons tooling around in it just totally smash hammer drunk&high, completely slipped the collar & off the hook,TOO!

I was born before the last gladiatorial games in Rome.

That was back when the 'Lions! Tigers! Bears! Oh My!' phrase first caught fire.

 

[FLCowboyFan]

Geez, 19-1 i’m the only one born after so far, where are my people at?

I suspect the last 20 years of losing has put a dent in our younger fan base. I was born in 67 so I got to see the glory years. I can't imagine what it must be like to be a huge fan and under 30.

 

[rockj7]

91. So I don’t remember it.

You missed the good times.

 

[CouchCoach]

Proud fan since 1977. My daughters are named Meredith and Lilly

Mine are named Hollywood and Manster.

The franchise played in its last Super Bowl on January 28, 1996, WAAAY back before Super Bowls were played in February

Ive seen my Boys win 4 Super Bowls. Denver, Buffalo, Buffalo, Pittsburg.

 

[zerofill]

Born in 1971.... I only remember watching the Super Bowl in 78... Don't remember the actual game from then lol. But, I have watched it since...and the one from the season I was born.

If you'd been there, maybe they wouldn't have rioted!

Well maybe I would've got injured like some people did. The next three parades, including the Stars one, were really fake parades. The 1993 team parade for instance there were more police officers there than parade watchers, and they basically loaded up the offense on one truck and the defense on another truck and that was the parade. I remember watching the news that evening and the media spinning that the parade had been a great success and then a 20 second clip and I was like that was the whole parade! Because of the riots in the first parade, we didn't have a good parade again until the Mavs won one.

Well that sucks. Maybe if they'd had better parades, Jerry wouldn't be so hesitant to win another SB!

Hey, My horse racing buddy sat next to that #56 Henderson on a flight from San Fran to Phoenix one time, he was melting my wall mounted phone down for me to come over,,,just so he could taunt me with that autographed 8" x10" b&w Hollywood Henderson photograph


* and he was a 49'ers fan at the height of the latest rivalry,,,
