I actually attended this game. I'm a native of the Wash DC suburbs in Northern Virginia. The season prior to that game, as an impressionable 13 year old, I decided to forgo the Redskins and pick a new team as my favorite. Since the Raiders had just won the Super Bowl (against the Vikings), I decided to go with them. The following season, the Raiders came to Baltimore (about an hour away) to play the Colts in the Divisional Playoff Game. I persuaded my father to take me to the game. (Remarkably, tickets were easy to get.)

I'll never forget seeing the Raider greats such as Stabler, Casper, and Biletnikoff. 25 years later, the Raiders are still my team.

I'm thrilled to be heading to Oakland this week to attend the game against the Jets, which will be my first trip to Oakland. GO RAIDERS!
