We just wanted to wish everyone a terrific and safe holiday weekend! We are each heading home to visit our families, so we won't be online during the weekend. But the official countdown to Miami's first game of the season has begun! See you next Sunday! GO DOLPHINS!!!

 

 

Everyone has a story about why they became a football fan. The one reason that we have heard most often is "I'm a football/Dolphins fan because of my dad." That is a story we can definitely relate to since they are the reason that we love this game so much. Because of that, we must say that we were very moved by the fact that Brad, of Dolfan Radio, dedicated tonight's show in memory of his father, who was the reason that Brad is such a Fins supporter. We had the privilege of participating in the show, which of course, was chock full of great Dolphins talk, but it also added an emotional element when callers started talking about their families. In case you missed it and would like to listen, please go to Dolfanradio.com and click on the archive for August 29th. Thanks again, Dolfan Radio, for letting us be a part of your show.  

 

 

Check out the 2nd video in our new "Tell Us Your Story" segment. If there's a lesson to be learned here --- it's to never mix football and weddings!  :)

Due to time limitations on our Preseason 3 video, we weren't able to show you the whole tour of Miami Mikes. Click on the video below to see our entire walk-through of the bar, along with commentary from the owner, Miami Mike.

 

 

We watched the Dolphins play the Bucs at the #1 Dolphins hangout in the Northeast. Miami Mikes Sports Zone played host to all Dolfans wanting to catch the game. We HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone who really wants a high energy Dolfan atmosphere. It was awesome! Even though the Dolphins lost, we still had a great time singing the fight song and high-fiving several of our fellow Dolphins fans. If you live in the north and you're missing your Dolphins, here's the place to be:

Miami Mikes Sports Zone at the Ramada

130 Route 10 West

Last season we met so many great fans who had some pretty terrific stories to tell. Everything from how they became fans to the day they met their favorite player on the Dolphins. We wish we had all of them on video, so now we're going to start rolling tape. During our travels we want to hear your story. Every week we will have a "Tell Us Your Story" section and will feature the videos there.

Our first video comes from Jackie - a New Yorker who told us how she became a Fins fan.

 

 

Below is our travel schedule for the upcoming season. With the exception of the Patriots game the day before Christmas Eve, we will be attending every away game. In addition, we will be heading down to Miami for one home game.

 

 

If you live in one of those cities or plan on attending any of those games, and would like a couple extra Dolfans at your tailgate, please contact us!

 

 

Spies Among Us

 

While it's important to watch your team and see who the major players are, it's also good to check out the competition and get a sense of what they will bring to the upcoming season. We took an opportunity to go to The Meadowlands and see how our division rivals, the Jets, were looking. Frankly, we weren't that impressed. We also felt that the energy level was fairly low in the stadium. But, of course, as everyone keeps saying...'it's only the preseason.'

Granted, the Jets are our rivals and we would have rather been in just about any other stadium, but we must say, it was really nice to be back in the football stadium atmosphere. The crowd, the jerseys, the food, the music, etc. Even though we were in Jets territory, it made us that much more excited about football season!
