If it weren't for Kansas State University I wouldn't exist.

Parents met at the Derb, dad knew my mom liked pickles and offered his to her one day at lunch. :-)

2 years later he proposed to her at Vista Burger....Yup, vista burger.

Whats more EMAW than that?

Ever so slightly at present, but soon will come when a Bloodfart will shape the fortunes of EMAW.

metalheadmom went here for a semester before she moved back home and started going to Washburn, which is where my parents met. Dad grew up in Alta Vista and has always been a Cat's fan. I'll be the first one to hold a degree from KSU Qatz Purple University.

Both my parents went to UMKC. My Grandpa went to Mizzou in the 1940s. I'm 1st Gen EMAW. However, my Dad became a tremendous KSU fan when I began school there. Mom too.

My grandpa has been a season ticket holder in both sports since the mid-50's. He is good friends with Ernie Barrett and donates $10,000+ per year to a scholarship that he helped create, plus the athletic department donations. My parents both went to K-State, but didn't meet until they moved back to Topeka. They've been football season ticket holders since they met. Three of my uncles go to every football game, and the fourth lives in Texas but goes to 2-3 games a year. They all split two tickets to the basketball games.


I've posted it before, but fatty used to always make fun of me for being born with a silver spoon in my mouth when it came to being EMAW. He was definitely #team1stgeneration.

Call me as along for the ride or whatever, but I didn't fall in love with the KSU Cats until about 97. Now I'm a first generation degree holder.

When did you know you were emaw? Or your first emaw memory?

My initial diehard memories come from the Mitch Richmond teams. I remember losing several bets when KU beat us in the tournament in 88 (I was a 7th grader). :(

Also, my dad had tickets to a game vs KU in Ahearn when I was in 4th grade, but it was a blizzard that day so we couldn't go.

Yes.  A fantastic post by seven. Excellent.
