The '82 Browns made the playoffs. Then again, it was a strike-shortened season, the Browns were 4-5, and they got blown out by the Raiders in the playoffs. Seriously though, that's a cool story. Are your parents from Ohio or was the game in Foxborough? FWIW, I attended my first Browns game in 1982. They beat the Steelers 10-9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 The game was at Municipal Stadium. My Father is from Hungary; moved to Cleveland in 1967. My Mother ended up in Cleveland sometime in the early '80s. At the time, both went to plenty of Browns games. Neither are natives from Ohio, though.

In what may be the cheesiest set of clues I've ever used, Keena Turner is correct. Clues I thru V were bad plays on words from Tina Turner song titles. I almost went with one clue: "Ike and________."
