I do this thread every year when the baseball season is over.
The first game I attended was 1971, which it just occurred to me it's been 50 years ago this upcoming season. It was the first year the West Upper Deck was opened and the first year of Astro Turf. I rode down from Greenville with a friend of mine that has passed away a number of years ago. After we got into our seats I just remember looking around and saying to myself "this is the prettiest stadium I've ever seen".
Dickie Harris was one of the, if not the biggest star of the team. If I remember correctly he lead the nation in yards per punt returns and maybe interceptions.
When was your first game at WB or Carolina Stadium?
EDIT: The game I'm referring to above was played against Maryland and while I can't remember the exact score the Gamecocks won handily.
