Featherstone v Hull CC final (1982 I think). Steve Quinn kicked the goals and Terry Hudson went around smacking all the Hull players (Ginners rule!).
Awesome atmosphere, terrific result - far bigger upset than Leeds v Leigh.

My first rugby game will have been watching my uncle play for the Prospect as a wee nipper.

I've no idea when my first Leeds game was. Again, some time a as nipper in the mid to early 1970's.

My first season attending regularly under my own steam was 1986 though I attended infrequently with aforementioned uncle between the 1970's and early 1980's.

I took my son to his 1st game against Saints in the Premiership where Schoey gobbed off to Cummins and turned a Yellow Card in to a red one. I took my daughter to her first game on Boxing day, 2008.

1968 ' waterspash' final Leeds V Trinity . Not a bad game to commence my lifelong love affair with rugby league was it !

Start of the season, early September game 1966, it may have been Cas, I looked it up once and I think it was - only remember the month and year because the song "They're coming to take me away" by Napoleon IV was in the charts and they played it to death on the southstand tannoy, yes there was quite a good tannoy in the southstand in those days.

Had a season ticket from 68 onwards for many seasons but for whatever reason didn't go to Wembley that year - first Wembley was 71 and of course as we all know the 72 final never happened.

Leeds v Leigh, 1982 I think

Lost 20-19. I remember Des Drummond and John Woods were playing for Leigh, that's pretty much as much I can remember !!!
