| I remember Paul Bishop and Kevin Tamati doing some training sessions at junior school, I think we went to a couple of games but all I can remember is sitting in the Bevan stand freezing cold with a hot chocolate.
A few years later, my uncle took me to my first 'proper' game - 1993 v Cas. We won 24-18 or something like that.

| I used to be a Wigan fan but I decided to be a glory hunter and jump on the Warrington bandwagon so I could enjoy a taste of Wembley.

| Being born and brought up in Warrington my only exposure to RL as a child was when my dad took me to watch Warrington v Wigan at wilderspool a few times and I also watched the great Wigan sides in challenge cup finals on telly along with a few GB v Australia test games too.
Interestingly enough hardly anyone at my junior or high schools showed any interest in Wire or RL in general.
I started to watch more wire games on tv when SL started and I quickly became hooked. I started to attend a few games at Wilderspool and some away games and then became a fully fledged season ticket holder when we moved to the hj.

| My first season was 2002 where I was invited by one of my best friends. It was the high scoring game at home against St Helens that we lost, I think it was 46-34.
Previously, I did see RL on Sky, but only took a passing interest because it was Warrington and I lived in the town. After my debut game though, I was hooked and the following season got myself a season ticket and not looked back since. I've also completed the RFL referee's course.
My mum has started watching us aswell after getting into it via myself and my uncle, and she also has a season ticket in the East Stand, so planning on going on a few road trips!

| Used to go Warrington Town with next door neighbours, however one night they asked if I wanted to go the rugby.
That was back in 1993, I bought a Wolfpack for £10 the day after and have had a season ticket every year. I haven't been a Warrington Town game since though.

Anyone that started in 2002 and carried on after that season deserves a pat on the back.

By accounts WFIII is a right miserable 2-hat, so it fits his profile

| The game that got me into rugby league was the Halifax v Saints Challenge cup final 87 I think, watched it on tv because my uncle + cousin had gone and been hooked on the game since.
Started going to Warrington games in the early 90s with a mate of my dads (my mum + dad stopped going in the nid 70s) and not looked back since. First game was Widnes away (the boxing day game with the fire in the main stand at half time.).

| Went to the Wolves vs Rhinos match at Wilderspool, playing RL for my primary school in the Miller 7's. Was in the Rodwell season, and we lost the match 40 -34 or something like that. Barely missed a match home or away for the rest of the year and been hooked ever since.

| First game was 1975 cup final at wembley when we lost to the chemics. Started going regular the season after that with my dad & brother and have been a season ticket ever since. Now take my 15 year old son whos first season was the last at Wilderspool.
Its been a rollercoaster ride but I wouldnt have missed any of it for all the good, and bad, memories. Wire are the best club in the world & I tell my lad to enjoy what he is seeing at the moment - this is superb stuff compared to some of the sheeite I have watched over the last 30 odd years. Old Trafford & Wembley this year folks - enjoy the ride.

| I was invited to Wildespool by a colleague who films the games for Wire training sessions. That was about 1997, remember first game, was against Saints and after went into players bar and met Paul Sculthorpe.
My own kids come now and are part of the 'teenagers' much decried by many on the board, take it from me, they are essentially harmless if fed at meal times.

| went in place of my dad's mate when he was away (on holiday or business), as he was a season ticket holder.
I don't remember many of the first few games I went. I remember Bradford coming to wilderspool and Bull mania.

| My deceased father
All i'll say is try playing junior rugby for a team in which all but 2 support wigan, 1 saints lad and me and growing up with the majority of the family Wigan fans, it shows the dedication. There are only 4 people in my HUGE family who support Wire, ME, my little bro, my Gran and my uncle the rest about 40 of em, dirty pies
