I started as a teenager in the mid-1960s (!) and started tapering off in the 90s. My interest tapered off with free-agency and, especially, the increase in astroturfed indoor venues. No mud, no rain/snow, no fog (remember the "fog bowl"?), no grass stains and a "sport" that turned corporate.
The Janet Jackson titty-fiasco was the confirmation that NFL management had turned stupid: Who the hell hires MTV to do the halftime show and is surprised by that result? They're still stupid to this day.
We went from "superbowl only" to no fuhbaw [1] in the early 2000s.

[1] The only "fuhbaw" I'll watch now if Bob Nelson's hilarious comedy sketch. Look it up if you haven't seen it.
