Originally from Montana, now from Northeast Missouri. My love for the Cards goes back to my childhood. As long as I can remember, my best friend was a Cowboys fan so I think I became a Cardinals fan just to piss him off. Those were good days to be a Big Red fan, though. Jim Hart (probably my all time favorite Cardinal) Terry Metcalf (hence my board name), Roger Wehrli, Mel Gray, Conrad Dobler, Jim Bakken, etc. I've stuck with them through their move to Arizona. I lived in New Mexico a few years back and my wife and I drove to dallas to see them get hammered by the Cowboys. Tom Tupa played quarterback that day. I hope to see them again soon when they play in St. Louis, that's only about a three hour trip for me.

Where in Northeast Missouri are you from, around Kirksville?

I was born and raised in Northeast Missouri watching the Cardinals on Channel 7 out of Quincy Illinois. I remember being heart-broken as a kid when Neil Lomax was brought in and Jim Hart was benched.

Ottis Anderson's rookie season was when I really fell in love with the Cards. O.J. was the man until he broke his leg at Chicago that season.

GO CARDS!!!!

I was living in Fayetteville during my high school years and went to Freeburg High, home of the Mighty Midgets. Can you imagine having a basketball team called the Midgets? Whata revoltin' development that was.

Born and raised in Dallas, TX. Been a diehard since the early 70's. I thought
the Cards logo was cool and it did not hurt the Big Red were actually good in the early days. Always loved watching the Cards battle the Cryboys in St. Lou
in their all white. There is no bigger fan than me. I have driven to camp in
both cities, been to 4 games in StL and 4 in AZ, traveled to PHI and SEA.
My entire game room is Cards memorabilia and even have a entire turf field
for carpet with logo. I'm sick! I live, breath, eat and sleep Cards.
:help: :newcards:

Born in Tucson--grew up in Tempe and was starved for the NFL, I switched from the Cowgirls to the Cards right away and have loved the Redbirds since then. I live in Southern WA now, spreading the good word about the pro football team from AZ.

I'm an Army brat but Hawaii is home. My dad retired there 30 years ago. Interesting to see so many from NM. I lived in Albuquerque when Sandia Base and Kirkland were separate. Returned for my senior year at Monzano HS.
Before coming out to my current location I did 7 years at Yuma Proving Ground. Been a Cards fan ever since they arrived in AZ.
And it looks like it's finally paing off.

South Dakota. I started pulling for the Cards back in the late '70s because I liked rooting for the underdog. I don't think I'll be able to use that reason much longer! My real obsession didn't manifest itself until DirectTV and the Sunday Ticket.

I'm from NY and have been following the World Champs since 1947. Still waiting for the next title, but we came close in 1948.

I lived in AZ until I graduated High School, enlisted in the Marines and was stationed in North Carolina for 10 years. I then moved to Florida where my wife is from. The place I reside now. I became a Cardinals fan when they moved there because it was a home team. Been one ever since. :thumbup:
