How many CAT/griz games have you attended?

Post by wbtfg » Wed Nov 19, 2014 7:38 pm

I was thinking back today, and i think this year will be 14 for me. First one was the heart breaker of 1997 during my freshman year.

I wasnt really a cat or griz backer until that game, but the ensuring fallout from dbag griz fans over thanksgiving and xmas breaks caused me to hate all things grizzly from that point on.

The highlight was either the win in 2002 or waking up in the shower of the UM sigma chi house in 1998. Both were pretty epic experiences.

Damn...this is a humbling question. I like to think of myself as the biggest Griz fan you'll find anywhere, but thinking back, I've only been to four Cat-Griz games. 1996, 1998, 2000, and 2004


I work as an attorney so that I can afford good scotch, which helps me to forget that I work as an attorney.

I went to all five in Missoula between 1994 and 2000 and every one since 2002 except the one in Bozeman in 2009 because I was in the hospital. So Saturday will be my 15th. I'm 27.

I am at 13. I was thinking about Torley Asheim (sp?). I know he never missed a home Cat game from 1936 until he died so that is about 35 plus he probably made most if not all of the Missoula Cat/griz games. So that's about 60-70 range!

I've been to 6, 5 with the band during school and 2011 in Bozeman. The outlook isn't too good now that I'm in grad school and far away.

I have probably been to about 15 but my uncle Bryce Bondurant (an MSU alumni, but turned griz) will be honored at this years game for attending 50 Catgriz games in a row. Quite an accomplishment no matter which side you're rooting for.

Only missed five since 1968. Stood on streets of Missoula in 1974 with Bryce Bondurant previously mentioned yelling Poor Grizzlies when he was still a Bobcat. Was with him the last time he was a Bobcat when he wore the hat of the team whoever had the ball, just made everybody mad around him no matter who they were for.

As kids growing up, we weren't allowed to go to Cat/griz until we were 14. This year will be my 23rd and I lived out of state for 7 years. I'm 44.

This year will be number 13. Every year since I started college at MSU in 2005 and then the several years prior growing up in Missoula when I was confused, lost, and basically abused by my parents into thinking I was a griz fan...

This will be 34 consecutive for me and 35 overall. Went my freshman year in 79, missed 80 in Missoula for some reason (might of been a kick a$$ Halloween party we had at our house or something like that); been to every one since 1981. The down side: only witnessed 9 victories so far :shock: (hope this year will make it 10)!

I've been to 27 of the 37 that have been played since my first Cat-Griz in Bozeman in 1977, 18 in Bozeman and 9 in Missoula. I've only missed one in Bozeman during that time, in 2001. 2012 was my first time going to Missoula since 1998, but I'm going to miss it again this year. I was at 13 of the 16 during "the streak", but unfortunately I was not there when we finally ended it in 2002.
