9/10 i was in 10th grade and I had a JV football game, it was my first football game ever so i was already going to remember it. I played WR and CB, and i lined up against this dude the whole game on both sides of the ball and we were going at it in a good competitive way. I remember after the game we gave each other a respect dap and i remember seeing him greet who i assumed was his pops after that. Find out later that week in the newspaper his pops was on one of the planes that hit the towers. He was literally watching his son play football and 8 hours later he would be on one of those planes. That really hit home.
its crazy, i remember what i wore on 9/11(And 1 t shirt and grey shorts, white headband, never wore this fit again after this day) what mixtape i listened to getting ready before school(never listened to that mixtape again after that day), who drove me to school,The weather(a perfect fall day in Mass, not a cloud in the sky, 70's)getting the news in Spanish class of what was going on and not really understanding it because they wouldn't turn on the TV. Having Gym class and they sat us on the bleachers and had the principal come in and tell everybody what was happening, what it was like in every class that day, peoples reactions and faces, my ride home after school because football practice got cancelled that day, getting home and EVERY single channel on TV was covering the event.
The fact i can remember so much detail about that day shows how big of an event it was
