Braves back with Benedict, Hubbard, Horner, Chief Nockahoma, etc., etc. First NASCAR was '91 or '92, I think, Davey Allison won @ Talledega. Also watched the Rock & Roll Express and the Boogie Woogie Man in Carnesville, GA quite a while ago!!! Best game I saw though was college, GA vs. AU '96 I think 4 OT's! (we won)

Atlanta braves game, early 80s. B. Benedict went deep, braves still lost. I think I was seven. First college game was a UGA, Auburn game, some dude named Walker played. Heard he became a halfway decent back. My dad never really liked sports and worked out of town alot, thank goodness my mom liked sports a little. Somewhere there is a picture of me around 6 years old with an Auburn shirt on, my mom is an Aubby fan. Someone should have reported her to DFCS, that is definately putting a child in an unsuitable/unhealthy environment. RTR!
