[john4psu]

Are you the Cal Ripken of Penn State football fans?

Anyone here have a consecutive games streak currently going on?

How many consecutive years have you seen at least one Penn State game either home or away? I’m up to 28 consecutive years with at least one home or away game.

 

[nits74]

My streak ended after 2011 @ 50.

 

[ELDADDY]

I've been to every game at Beaver since 1989 and I'm only 23 years old

 

[FHSPSU67]

1963-2007- 45 Years

 

[jtm78]

Since 1962

Consecutive games between 1963 and 1977

 

[JWB389]

I guess I'm a newbie. I go back to '85. 34 years.

 

[martypsu]

Exactly 50 years.

 

[NatLion]

Cal Ripken would go to every game, just sayin'

Correct. So if you want to be known as the "Iron Lion", it would have to be by games, not years.

 

[hagerstown lion]

Older brother is a Penn State Grad. 51 years, and over 30 years in section WCU.

 

[johnmpsu]

Since 1973. Virtually all games since 74 until 4 years ago when we started missing the last game (or 2 this year) in order to travel to CO for the ski season.

 

[Elwood Blues]

Impressive streaks, guys. I feel like a newbie at only 23 years.

 

[PennStateTurf2002]

42 years old. Since 1991 I have missed the following games......

The 81-0 beat down of Cincy
Temple 2016

36 years. Missed 1981 or it would be 39!

 

[Parkland Fan]

36 years. Missed 1981 or it would be 39!

I am still current with 51 years. I did have a streak of 36 consecutive home games, but a nasty stomach virus ended that. Haven't been there yet this year so the streak is in jeopardy.

 

[razpsu]

Since 1973 or 1975 was only 7 and 9 so cant remember. But now I hit a home game or an away game at least once a year. Includes bowls. So that is 40 some years?

We used to be wcu row 57. For 40 years?

 

[razpsu]

Good friends with jack the Candyman

 

[Thus Spoke Mainer]

At least one game attended since '72 (at Army) and one home game since '77. First game was JVP's third game as HC at Army in '66.

Still going since 1972, that's 46 years for those who are mentally challenged.

 

[Bob78]

Consecutive years with attending at least one game: Season tickets since freshman year of 1974.
First-ever game in 1960. At least one game per season from '60-'63; then a couple here and there between then and until 1974.

Every home game starting with 1977 season. This is 42nd year.

 

[MJG-90]

Correct. So if you want to be known as the "Iron Lion", it would have to be by games, not years.

Cal would attend all road games as well. Pretty sure nobody will come close to Cal's streak of seasons playing every single game.

Since 1966

 

[No Name all Game]

I have been a season ticket holder since 1993 but have attend at least one game since 1976 so 42 years just a baby compared to some others

I'm up to 28 consecutive years also. Got season tickets when they opened the North upper deck. Seems like I go to less games than I used to though.

1968-2016. I just tired of the round trip, TBA game times, relentless shilling for more and more money, and a changing crowd.
I just sit in my lounge chair, a warm bathroom 30 feet away, a refrigerator 20 feet away, and a 65” HD-TV with surround sound. Before the game, I find a Blue Band pregame performance on YouTube, and play it 15 minutes before kickoff. It sets the mood, because they’re mostly from White Out games.
I don’t watch any pregame TV shows, halftime, or post game shows. I check other games during timeouts.
I used to love attending games. Now I love watching on TV.

 

[Roar More]

52 years and counting, averaging about ten games a year.

 

[interrobang]

I'm sure some are the Billy Ripkens of PSU football. (I kid, I kid!)

[burnsie1983]

Uh....1 year. Sincerely hoping to add to my "streak".

 

[Nitt1300]

Could have been 50 this year, but I lost a few to Uncle Sam.

 

[hagerstown lion]

I have been a season ticket holder since 1970 started attending games in 1967 . We sit in section WCU row 54 chair back seats. Jack the candy man used to sit next to me but, now he sits a couple of rows in back of me.

I had a home streak from the first game played at the new location of Beaver Stadium in 1960 to the Temple game in 2011. 51 years!!! The Temple game is the only one that I have missed since 1959’s Syracuse -PSU game in the old stadium ( near Rec Hall.
