    Lets kick off some Timbers History...

    "It was August 12, 1975 and the Seattle Sounders were in town for the quarterfinal playoff game at Multnomah Stadium (PGE Park) which was packed with over 31,000 supporters. The game played to a 1-1 draw at the end of regular time. A sudden death overtime ensued and the Timbers won the match. Fans by the thousands poured unto the field after the long hard fought victory to celebrate. It is not only one of the greatest matches in Timber history, but in the history of professional soccer in the US. We will work on getting some more clips from this match and from others of the good old days." -droppingtimber.com

    I sent along these videos to my dad. He was in complete awe of the footage because he was there for the entire first season. From him to me I am second generation Timbers fan. Great Stuff!
