Just To Get You In the Mood

    How many years has that been your spot, LWS? Have you moved around a bit?

    first game in 1965. went as I could afford from that point to mid 70s

    in middle 70s, bought a pair from a friend and sat a few years in PP

    When Majors arrived, bought 4 in Y7..

    In 1989, bought 4 in Section B. Added 10 more in that section in 1992..

    that is my history in Neyland.

    We had 4 in Y7 (about row 35) from the late 70s til late 90s before moving under the overhang in Y9.

    You like that new spot, Sam? Does it get cold for the November games? Bet its great for rain and allows for some shade when it's hot early in the season.

    We love it. No rain......no sunburn or staring into the sun. We can see the full jumbo tron and have a TV only feet in front of us. We know a lot of good people around us too as we have been in Y9 for about 15 years or so. The key is sitting far enough up to not get any rain but low enough to see the jumbo tron and full stadium atmosphere.
