Scout... you post these same questions on this board, the 49ers.com board and football's future board. Are you doing research or just trying to promote your site?

I was 10 years old at the time.......The NFC Championship Game vs. Dallas during the 94-95 season. I still get chills when I see the footage of Eric Davis intercepting Aikman and taking it to the house on the first drive.

Amazing game !!!

That was a nice one. Chicago won 12 or 13 games in the regular season and got the home field advantage. I remember a lot of talk in the media about how the "finesse" Niners could not go into Chicago in January, in the snow, and beat the Bears. I also remember thinking at the time that the Bears seemed a little over-confident.

But that day the best defense on the field by far was the Niner D and Rice gave the Bears an example of why he is the G.O.A.T.

The game in 1998 against the Jets that Garrison Hearst won by taking it 96 yards on a run play in overtime as Terrell Owens blocks for him the entire way.

Awesome.

Best first game of the season ever.

My most memorable game was a Niner loss.

It was the 1983 NFC Championship game against he Redskins. We were losing 21-0, and then Montana tied the game at 21 all, including a bomb to Freddie Solomon!

We lost that game to two phantom defensive calls, but that game got me hooked to the Niners ever since!

Being that I was at The Catch II, I can't really even consider another game that I would rather relive.

#2 - 94-95 NFC Championship

Last year: 2nd Cardinals game.

Playoff game against the NY Giants in 02 (i think it was 02). I'll never forget that comeback!
