What was the first Sams Army game?
June 11, 1995 at Foxboro Stadium. A 3-2 win against Nigeria in the US Cup. Many “Sammers” had been attending games well before Sam’s Army made its debut, but this was the first attempt at organizing support for the USA. The ticketing authorities originally had us on the sideline, but too many people were whining about our standing. Stadium authorities opened up the gates to the end behind the goal, we filled in, and the rest, as they say, is history.
