I'm glad this post exists. I'm 21, so I didn't grow up with the hogs but this is how I became a Redskins fan.

It was a cold January in Syracuse Ny-1992-where my family is from. Some family lives West of Syracuse which is big-time Bills fans. And everybody knows the Bills were hot for four straight years. My entire family and neighbors and whoever else you could think of were ecstatic about the Bills and Jim Kelly.

I was four, and I liked football. And I rooted for the other team to be the little instigator I was.

Burgundy and Gold won that day, and I knew from then on I'd always be a Redskins fan.
