    By the degree of panic after a bad game.

    Young fans assume it's all over for us but the shouting.

    Old fans know from experience this simply means war.

    Don't miss Tuesday's game 'cause it will be memorable.

    Bake it!

    Sign of an old person:

    They love to lump "young people" in one category and point out their flaws, while ignoring their own stubbornness.

    Usually you can tell the difference between old fans and young fans by either the size/height of the fan, or how old they look.

    1985 Finals: Lakers - Celtics:

    Game 1

    The Celtics beat the Lakers 148-114 in a game that came to be known as the "Memorial Day Massacre." Kareem Abdul-Jabbar had only 12 points and 3 rebounds. Magic had only one rebound. Danny Ainge scored 15 points in the first quarter. Scott Wedman made all 11 shots he took from the field.

    But the Lakers win the series 4-2.

    Good example of the only team who was given more leeway than the Rockets to hit, push, grab and body slam opponents without fear of being called for a foul.

    Also remember that the MMM took place in Boston, and not on the road.
