Re: What was your first Reds game you remember attending?

My memory of it is obviously sketchy, but for me it would have been a Reds/Giants game around 1967 or 1968, at Crosley Field. I was maybe 5 or 6 years old. The only thing I clearly remember is my dad pointing to the field and saying "that's Willie Mays right there". For some reason that one line always stayed in my memories. The earliest games I can clearly remember would have been in the early years of Riverfront Stadium. Special times and special teams. And obviously a great time to be a kid attending Reds games.
