I graduated high school in 91 and up until that time, I didn't really follow football. I grew up in a basketball only household (UL fans 
). I started following UK football while I was in the Air Force while living in Omaha, NE. You have to follow football out there. I was only able to watch a handful of games back then with much less tv station options compared to today.
I think my first UK football game I attended was against IU when there was that thunderstorm that delayed the game. Might have been that 3-0 game. [sick] I guess that was a memorable moment in a bad way. I did get to follow that one up with seeing a record setting moment when Yeast set the all time receiving record in the SEC in my next visit to Lexington. A fellow poster from the old AOL board hooked me up with front row seats behind the Vandy bench for like $40 for two (Can't even get 1 for that price now). I also got to sit up pretty close to see one of our annual beat downs by Florida back in 99 I believe.
While the Yeast record setting moment was great, I think my favorite moment though was the whole USC game 3 years ago. I was all the way up top in the corner for that one, but I am not going to complain for the $25 ticket I got. It was a loud and exciting environment and the best atmosphere of any of the handful of games I have attended. I wish I could have went to more games over the years, but finances, work schedule, and family always seemed to keep that from happening. Maybe when the kids are out of the house in hopefully the next 8 years, I will be able to make more trips to Lexington.
