Not, "How old are you?" or "What's the first game you can remember?"
When you say, "I've been a fan since XXXX," what year/date do you give, and why?
For me, I remember the 1975 UK/IU game but I honestly didn't realize the magnitude of the game, UK basketball, or BBN. I kind of meandered through life as a young boy until the 1978 title game with Duke. That's when I was hooked officially and can honestly say that was the day I came into my own as a fan.
So...March 27, 1978
