The date was October 17, 1993. I was 9 years old and headed to my first live Patriots game. I was excited to see the #1 overall pick, Drew Bledsoe, but he had been hurt while leading the Patriots to the first win of the season and his career in Arizona a week earlier. That meant I was going to see Scott Secules get the start against the Houston Oilers and the great Warren Moon. The Patriots would lose the game 28-14, but I still remember my excitement like it was yesterday.
In the years that have passed since that day, I’ve built a lifetime of memories in Foxboro.
