Describe your first Jazz game ever!

The only thing I remember about the first Jazz game I went to was that Kevin Garnett got ejected and punted the ball into the crowd. Man the DC crowd was good back then.
 
She should have dumped a soda on you.

If you can afford to get drunk on $7 Utah beer you can afford to buy someone a bitchin jersey.

Was tailgaiting across the street for a few hours before the game drinking Sailor Jerry and playing flip cup.

I was 12. Salt Palace floor seats. A year or so before Stockton was darfted. Griffith, Dantley, Green were kind of the big 3. I don't remember much about the game per se, but after the game I met some of the team. Green and Griffith were cool, signed stuff for me and some other kids, so did a few other players, but most were no-names, and I still have the ball and program they signed. I think that was Eaton's rookie year. He was a freaking GIANT!! And I was nearly 6 ft tall at the time, and he still looked so so so huge. Dantley was a dick. If I remember right he didn't have the best game and was kind of pissed. I went to maybe a dozen games that year, as my dad's friend was an accountant for Battistone or the Salt Palace or some such and had seats basically on the front row he didn't use. Have been hooked ever since.
 
My first Jazz game was amazing. Jordan and the Bulls take Jazz to three overtimes at the Salt Palace. Jazz pull out the epic win. Best game I've ever been too. First and best. Became a Jazz fan for life because of this one game.
 
I saw AD, Stein, Jeff Wilkins, Deuces, the Fastest of them All, and Stock vs. Denver in a playoff series. Fat Frank was the coach and Sloan an assistant.
 
1988 in the Salt Palace, the Jazz vs. Washington bullets. Although I was very young, I remember Karl Malone going coast to coast, dribble and everything for a hammer time dunk. I remember it was very very hot and dark inside.
