I was riding home from a high school soccer game in Dallas with my parents. I heard it on the radio and I cried. I didn't quite understand his real situation....I thought he'd easily recover and be back on the field the next season.

I didn't believe it...DT was invincible in my mind. Sucked...

Junior year in high school. Teacher came in and announced his death (in Spanish class). I remember going to the Antioch Mall that day with my mother and feeling miserable. I was devastated for some time after.

I'll always associate my 1st ever car wreck as a teenager with DT's wreck because they both happened on the same day. Mine def not as serious just a minor fender bender from sliding on ice and into another car at slow speeds.
Wear your seatbelt folks.

I was at work and had just finished a major project. I was wrecked for the rest of the afternoon and accomplished nothing. At first, I thought the guy who told me was joking.

I remember when it happened but I was pretty young and it didn't affect me the way it seems to have affected people older than me, who may remember the early part of his career more.

I cried way more than I care to admit and grieved for a long time afterwards.

I was "home". A mostly burned down motel. I stayed in one of 3 units that wasn't ravaged by fire. I must've been 14-15 years old. I def cried. In hindsight, such an emotional experience probably only tightened my bond to the Chiefs during these formative years.

I was driving to one of my clients offices and had on sports radio. They announced it, I pulled over and started crying. I was late for my meeting and red eyed. Told the client why, and seemed to understand. Seems like yesterday.
My son and I stopped by his grave when we went to the SuperBowl in Miami.
