I don't know if many of you all are or were using the ESPN Passport website. If you aren't familiar with it, it's a website that would allow you to create a database of sorts of games that you've attended. Well while the site is still physically there, it's no longer of any real function. Scores of the games don't even seem to be loaded at this point.
I used that site with regularity so I was pretty bummed to see it die, so I went looking for a new site in hopes that there might be one similar. Luckily, I found fbpassport.com. It actually improves on the espn passport site in some areas such as you are given a top performances list of the games you've seen or my favorite improvement is that the time frame it covers seems to go back a long long way while the ESPN site only went back to about 1995 for NFL games. Hopefully they'll add some things that the ESPN did have that it lacks currently, like a place for you to make comments on an individual game (such as whom you went with) and a place to enter your seat location to reference back on later.
If you make an account, the user name works for their other sites, such as bbpassport.com and hardballpassport.com. I wish these sites were all merged into one location, hopefully someday.
Anyway, I know for me using a website like this has helped me remember games that I otherwise would have no recollection. I know that even with this I have some games that I saw that I can't remember and probably never will.
If any of you do decide to make an account, you can set it up so that others can search for your profile and browse through your game history. Feel free to take a look at mine. http://fbpassport.com/traveler/Packman_26 It's kinda fun to look back at some of the history, like when I was 9 and went to the Packers-Lions Wildcard game on New Years Eve in 1994 and Barry Sanders was held to -1 rushing yard.
Hope that maybe some of you enjoy this stuff as much as me. (PS-it probably sounds like it, but I don't work for this website. I discovered it yesterday.)
