Third generation EMAW, so basically was bred Purple.  Yet, the 1988 KSU vs. KU game in Allen Fieldhouse sealed the deal for me.  Alumni section, buddies parents had season tix, 5th row, and took me and him.  I was 14, in purple sweats, purple sweatshirt and screaming loud for Richmond and Henson.  Richmond scored 30+, don't remember the exact number and Henson sealed it at the line down the stretch.  I was nutty all game and on the ride home.  Never got asked back. 

First home football game experience was against North Texas.  After they beat those low-lifes the students rushed the field.  Since been all EMAW at football games and only missed a handful since. 
Wait a minute guys... I don't play golf... for money... against people.

Listening to Chad May make multiple sub minute game winning drives in the early 90's with my dad in the garage... and then jumping around like we won a championship or something.

2001 loss to A&M at home.  Was my freshman year and I got WAY more angry than I had expected.  Was a casual fan from about 95-2000, but being on campus sucked me in.

After attending my first and only Cats - Kwho game at the Allen FH in '72   :dunno: ,  the Aubrey Nash fake injury foul call  and the smug Jayhawk fans all around me, created a hate with absolute passion for KU and Ted Owens and turned me hard core EMAW.

didn't know you were so big time fff

I would have to say listening to the 1995 game at cincinnati on the radio where lockett pulled it out at the end, and mitch went crazy at the end and I'm sure added 79-283 big bigs, had to be my first full on EMAW love story, after that it was full on non-stop emaw, 1998 put me in a dark place, 2003 helped me to get out of it

KANSAS STATE +13.5 BEATS OKLAHOMA IN BIG 12 TITLE GAME!   

 :kstategrad:

I wonder what the moneyline on that SOB was

Moneyline was +500.  I bet $50 on the Cats and won $250.   :kstategrad:

Copper Bowl

THIS.  Watched it 3 feet from my grandparents' wooden-cabinet-looking-dial-channel-changer TV.  There was no turning back at that point.

i'm way too edgy and cool for this type of stuff

he's right on this one. It's pretty bad. It's like my "why I'm skeptical" post on ksufans. jesus christ what a hilariously embarrassing moment.
Given the time I bet I could transcribe that word for word from memory.
Where did you get that overnight bag?

98' vs. A&M was the biggest bitch slap of all time. I balled like a little bitch. Sometimes at night, I can still hear the crying...

I'll be the true grandpa on here for you guy's.   The year was 1961 when I took a campus trip by train from KC, Mo.   Before that, having grown up Catholic, I was somewhat of a ND fan and listened some to the Sqwaks.    That trip and experience sealed the deal for me.    I've been a EMAW ever since.    :bracketmouse: :lynchmob: :ksu:

1988 NCAA run and Elite 8 loss to KU.

This one.  

Listening on the radio in the backyard with my dad to us beat North Texas in 1989 and Mitch Holthus celebrating like we just won the superbowl.  

Texas Christian University coach Gary Patterson has been hired as Kansas State's 34th football coach, multiple sources have confirmed to GoPowercat.com.  Patterson replaces Ron Prince, who was fired Wednesday. - Tim Fitzgerald   Nov, 7, 2008
