My first memory of being a Laker fan, was having this on VHS Tape during summer vacation 1995 and watching it over and over again. I was 7 years old just falling in love with the game of basketball and this video had me hooked.
Watching this video repeatedly along with my big bro (who is way older than me) being a huge Laker fan had me hooked for life. The next season I would constantly watch the Lakers and other NBA games. Found out who Jordan was and all the other mid 90’s superstars.
Then Magic comes out of retirement and my brother and the media literally went crazy!! All over TV. This added steroids to my already massive excitement and hype for the Lakers and basketball in general.
Have any of you seen this? Just wanted to share my earliest memory of being a Laker Fan.
Sending much love to my Laker family around the world! 🌎🫶🏽 Go Lakers!! 💜💛

Never saw this one, but I appreciate you sharing it. We’re about the same age so I can relate.
I videotaped the 98 home win vs the Jordan bulls and the NYC all star game 2 weeks later so those were my VHS repeat watches as a childhood fan. Memories.
Had that VHS too 💜💛🤝
