In 1993, I was:
- Thread starter peate
- Start date
I was 5/6 years old. Don't remember although supposedly I was really stoked about it.
First series I remember was when we got beat by NJ in '97 in 5 games.

In 93 I was 27 old and went on a 3 day bar hop and got crazy drunk on parade day .
About 8 of my buddies and co-workers also missed work. Our boss was livid but non of us had any trouble going back on the job.
Highlight must have been the after game celebration at a strip club where nobody realized we just won the cup; we were treated like royalty when we entered the club and announced the news
Good times

I was 26 but it was my first SC since I came to Montreal from behind the iron curtain 3 years prior to that. None of poll options seem to apply.

I was 4 and don’t remember any of it. After all the years of disappointment I had grown pessimistic. Watching prospects get selected and develop is what kept me around.
Now I’m in my 30s, haven’t lived in Montreal in over 7 years, but will be packing the car later this week and driving to my hometown to take it all in.

Ughh, that one was men against boys. I remember that one for brodeur scoring on the habs.
The other thing about that series is that it might have had the longest OT game in bell center history when brisebois scored.
I think it was either that one or the one next year against Buffalo when peca scored.
I also remember Brodeur scoring.
But the most vivid memory from that series is that my dad made me go to bed after the first OT or so, and me sneaking downstairs to listen to the game from the basement stairwell, haha. Then running up to bed after Brisebois scored.

The 93 series is on Sportsnet right now for anyone interested, the game looks so slow compared to today’s.
In '93 I was already a bit jaded.
I had watched the '75, '76' 78, '79, and '86 cups and I still had memories of the '71 cup although I was only 12 at the time.
That's it, that's the post.

I was 7 living in a different country with mother and siblings while my father was here and taping for us every game. He sent us the tape 3 or 4 weeks later.

I was living in a shitty damp basement apartment with my girlfriend and my old 20 inch color tv died during the second period of game 4! I ran upstairs and woke up my Phillipino landlord(s), two of the coolest people on the planet and outstanding cooks as well, they kept me supplied in good food, (MR and Mrs. Aquino, I hope that the afterlife is treating you well!)
I woke them up and told them about my dilemma and they found me an old 9 inch, yes 9 inch black and white tv and gave it to me, all smiles. I rushed downstairs, hooked it up and proceeded to sit about a foot(30 centimeters) away from the screen with my eyes straining and forehead veins popping, I watched the infamous wink in black and white lol, Patrick Roy was a legend to me when I saw that.
We went on to win the cup and the black and white TV saved my ass, we were broke AF but really enjoyed life back then, fun times. That was back when the John LeClair jersey actually still fit.

Playing Bantam for the Mariniers. Watching wrestling. Having my first girlfriend. Playing SNES, I got it the previous Christmas. Probably NHLPA Hockey, Super Mario World and Sim City, which my father gave to me for passing 6th grade. He thought little of video games, but he loved the idea that I was playing Sim City, and I loved it.
I still had my hockey cards but no longer did the whole trading with friends deal, I guess you get too old for that in high school...
....
For sure we all got f***ed buying loads of worthless Pro Sets, didn't we?

If my memory serves me correct, I was at that playoff game where the Habs won in OT.
