I had little to no exposure to FB early on [mom took the TV to goodwill when I entered grade school, and it didn't return until we bought a Commodore 64 for educational purposes].

My first 'Boy's Life' from Boy Scouts [Nov 1979] had Terry Bradshaw on the cover. That's the first recollection of any type I have of FB.

Didn't have much of an impact.

Through the 80s, I was solidly a Royals fan. Gramps took us to many games, one of my earliest memories was him telling me about the rally cap. At [now] Kaufmann Stadium, I put my baseball cap on inside out in the bottom of the 9th with George Brett at bat and he promptly hit a walkoff HR.

85 huge of course, after that, I split my attention between the Royals and Larry's Jayhawks. Bo as a Royal was actually my entree to FB. I knew not to root for the Raiders, but I sure as shit rooted for Bo.

My first rooting interest in the Chiefs was Dino Hackett in 1988, then Neil Smith and DT came to town and I was sold. Never missed a game, never missed a second of a game, until this year.

An, so your fandom really STARTED with Marty. I get it now.
