Were you alive when the Chiefs won the Superbowl?
 

I'm curious who was around back then...

I WAS 4

I was in the Air Force then and stationed in Duluth. (Yes, I'm an old fart.) The Vikings fans all sneered at the Chiefs before the game. It was interesting how the attitudes changed after the game.

Nope. And even if I live to a hundred, I won't be around for the next one they make it to.

Thats what truly pisses me off. I was 7 months old so I can say they won a superbowl in my lifetime. But I can't truly say I have experienced the Chiefs winning a superbowl. SUCKS

My dad was 11.

Negative

My dad was 10. I was -12.

Nope. I eagerly await the next time. :(

I was 13

I was 3 1/2.

Interestingly, I remember watching the Apollo 11 moon landing in July 1969, but I don't remember the Super Bowl.

In fact, I remember all the Apollo missions after that. I was more into space stuff and sci-fi back then than I was sports.

The first SB I remember watching was SB VII in Jan. 1973, the Dolphins beating the Redskins to cap a perfect season.

I was 5.....Don't remember that game but remember the suck of the 70s and 80s though....

Several of my friends came over to my folks house and my mom made tacos for SB I. That was about the only good thing that happened that day. SB IV was different. My future wife and I watched it in the Student Union with a couple hundred other students on 2 TVs. They might have been 27 inch giants. As soon as the game was over, we took off for KC.

I was 8 years old. My parents were watching it at a another couple's house. I remember the game being on, but can't say I really watched it. My brother and I were more interested in playing with our Hot Wheels cars with the other couple's son.

I was 8 years as well but living on a farm we didn't watch much tv. Dad always made sure we had something to do besides watching the "boob tube"

3 months old when KC won Super Bowl IV.

Stationed on Guam, saw it a month or two later on Armed Forces TV.

I was 11 years old.
My best friend was a Viiking fan, and watched together, sitting on the floor in front of our brand new console TV.

I was 13, remember it well, watched it at my grandma's house.

Even SB 1

Born 23 days after. My brother still calls me the jinx.

Not even an itch.

I was 9 but did not follow football at all and if I had I would have probably been rooting for the other team at that point (I am 1/4 Swede so for a young kid of course I thought the Vikings were cool).

Now if you ask if I remember the collapse of the Cubs at the end of 69 when the "Amazin' Mets" won the penant, yes I remember that too well. What I get for having a baseball fan for a mother and living in Chicago at the time.

I was 6. My earliest Chiefs memory was the Longest Game.

Worst part about being alive and watching the game was it was the FIRST Super Bowl I watched as a kid and I wound up liking the Chiefs! So 46 years of pain.

It's been the World's longest cock tease. :banghead:

I was 9. I watched it with my dad.

This thread delivers.

I saw both games, I & IV.

I have seen the Chiefs win 50% of the Superbowls that they have been in:D

Super Bowl I in boot camp. Super Bowl IV in the Gulf of Tonkin.

This! Watched both on my black and white TV ... think it was 19" but could've been smaller. I know I watched the first one on NBC and I think there were still 2 broadcasts for the fourth and since I was loyal to the AFL of course NBC???

Yeah, the Jets won the year before, but I personally think our win gave the AFL the credibility we needed.

Hank learned some things after playing against Vince in the first and things were different in the second.

I was alive, but I didn't watch either of the games. Being that the Chiefs were a elite team back then meant that all the sports Paraphernalia was either Chiefs, Vikings or Packers.
So, Mom and Dad made me a Chiefs fan by purchasing KC Pajamas for me.
THANKS MOM AND DAD!

I was born in 1981... At least I've enjoyed two Royals World Championships...

I was alive but have no memories of the game.

Oh Jesus Christ, you had to bring that into this too! :deevee:

That was the first game I cried to and my father teased me all throughout Christmas Supper. Ironically, one of my parents best friends rented out their house in Ft Lauderdale Florida to Jim Kiick for two seasons.

I was 11.
Mom cooked a feast that would feed a small city and dad had friends over.
My best childhood memory. My dad and his friends were asking me about chief players.

Not even close.

So you were still stuck in your Dad's balls hoping he didn't jerkoff or have sex to send you on your imminent demise. ROFL

I was a decade and a half away from being born.

I was four.

My dad was -4.....

I had turned 4 just a few months before the Super Bowl but can't remember seeing it, yet I can clearly remember the moon landing.

My dad and I just talked about the moon landing a few weeks ago and I remembered everything that day.

Isn't that funny. In 1969 I was 6. I have such vivid memories of the Moon Landing. My Brother and I made a TANG Cocktail, ate Twinkies and had a freak out. We were in heaven that summer.

9 years old....
It was ****ing glorious....

This thread explains why the hot chick threads are all uncontrollable aids fires..you old ****s

I certainly remember the moon landing as well (yes, it DID happen!). But man, Tang was just nasty stuff even if it was cool since the astronauts used it.

Yep.. 1

Nope. Born later that yr.

The best thing about Tang is that shortly thereafter, Pulp-Free orange juice made its debut

Born 22 months later... My dad was 26 and remembers it well.

I guess the next question is,, will I still be alive when they ever get back????

But a growing gleam in me pappy's eye was I

Just really hate admitting it with all of the donkos skulking around here lately... looking for something else to crow about

No.

And I likely won't be alive when they win the next either.

I even got to watch on a color tv
 

I was 8 years old at a birthday party on the outskirts of the broadcast range for the rabbit ears to work. I could watch most plays with a lot of snow. I was not allowed to do my own rabbit ear adjustments. That was a job for the experts.

I had to wait until the neighbor lady had finished her KC newspaper later in the week to see the good pictures.

And thats the way it WAS and we LIKED IT :D

Love ya

Just turned 9 a few months earlier. Became an instant Chiefs fan. Damn have I regretted it many times over these past 45 years. But I've had some fun along the way as well.

me also

Almost eight, with my mom and uncle on a B/W set.

Was six years old. I thought "of course" the Chiefs are the world champions. I knew it would always be so...


Disposable lighters hadn't been invented yet.

My best friend was also a Viking fan since he'd recently moved to Kansas from Minnesota. We were 9th graders then and we debated all season long as to who's team was the best. Guess I showed him with the beat down KC gave the Vikes.
He's now a Chiefs fan however

I have mentioned this in the forum before. That was the first NFL game i ever saw - maybe even the first Super Bowl televised in Canada. I randomly picked the Chiefs to cheer for on that day - and have been cheering for them ever since! AND it was my 14th birthday.

Nope. The first Super Bowl I remember watching was Montana vs Dan Marino.

I'm a superbowl baby, if you do the math you can get guess my birthday within a couple of days.

I was 9 at the time and we had moved up to NW Iowa from Lawrence in '67. We were the ONLY Chiefs fans on our street and my dad placed a lot of friendly bets with the neighbors, who despite the previous year's Super Bowl did not take the AFC seriously and were rabid MN fans.

Beating the Vikes was sweeeet. I remember jumping up and down in celebration at the end of that game. I still remind the many Viqueens fans up here that we have more Super Bowl victories than they do.

The first one vs. GB I have zero recollection. Too young I guess.

I was less than 2 months old.

I was six years old. For a long time I thought maybe I saw it, because I remember a friend of my dad's coming over to watch an important game of the Chiefs. But given where we were living at the time, I don't think the timing was right. I was aware of the Chiefs and called myself a Chiefs fan, but for the most part I had no idea what was going on.

I remember it like yesterday. Sitting in my highchair,pooping my pants,then getting pissy and throwing my baby bottle onto the kitchen floor.
45 years later & nothing much has changed.

LOL

I was 9.
