The 50+ Die Hard Fan Club

[john van brocklin]

Ok, if you have been a loyal, long suffering fan for 50 years or longer, please post and let us know how many years!

I have been a fan for 51 years.

The first 20 were outstanding!

The last 31 years not so great.

But it’s great to come here and commiserate!

65 years.

 

[Redsfan_83]

43+ years...31 painful ones, but fortunate for Season 4 of Sweethearts will be on soon

 

[Jerichoharris]

43 years. Almost there and I don’t know what’s more depressing, the misery of the last 31 years or the fact that I’m old enough to remember the good years!

 

[SBXXVIII]

55 for me!

 

[RodeoJake]

61 for me

 

[MarkP88]

50 on the dot for me this year - 1976 was my first year as a fan.

55 years but honestly wouldn't call myself 'Die Hard' anymore. I still watch most of the games but have no expectations whatsoever and haven't felt bothered by a loss in years. I absolutely Loathe Jerry and Stephen and don't even like very many of the current players. I guess you could say I've had it with the Clown Show Dallas is year after year.

It will be 60 years on December 31st, 2027.

Yep, not exactly a die hard myself, but if you’re still a fan after the last 30 years of mismanagement you gotta be pretty loyal!

Not sure of the exact number since I was a kid. I know I became a devout fan in 1977, but my family was Cowboys fans before then. My dad and I would watch the team each Sunday and had been doing so since the early 1970s. It was Dallas and Bear Bryant's 'Bama back then. (We were living in Alabama.)

The first season I really started cheering with any kind of enthusiasm was 1977. Inthat Super Bowl my dad wanted the Broncos to win and I just kind of wanted the Cowboys to win to go with the other team. When they won I said well heck these guys are pretty good and I’ve been a faithful and loyal fan ever since.

This stretch since 1995 has to be one of the most disappointing stretches of any significant sports franchise in history.

An embarrassing franchise now. Laughable.

I have always admired your ability to look past the negative and find a way to enjoy the games.
