Default Shifting into first she dies?

This has happened to me twice lately. When I'm in my driveway and have shifted into neutral about to park it I go to shift into first to drive into my garage and it dies. I put it back in neutral turn it on and it dies again...and again...and again. Can anybody tell me what is going on?

I can also guarantee everyone who told you to put the kickstand up has done it at least 1 time themselves.
