When Money Mac hit the field goal, what was the celebration like where you were?

We were at a bar (because we originally wanted to go somewhere to watch UK basketball, then watch my friends band play, and stay for the game, but we got down there to find out that they don't have an elevator ) and everyone went crazy!

Some people were crying, some hugging, some giving high-fives or fist bumping, and some people were just screaming!

Was it as crazy anywhere else as it was in Cincinnati/Greater Cincinnati?!

Below is a screenshot from a video at my brother's place when we won. They were jumping around and going nuts!

We all became die-hard and started going to games when this whole crew graduated and came home from college (2003).

Bar is Hero at the American Airlines Center in Dallas.  

Fun tidbit....Army/Navy bball game was on when we got there and there were like 8 dudes that were on last year's Army roster watching the game....they all ended up being bengals fans because the gentleman in this video (wearing the scarf i bought off a homeless man last week) was a die hard bengals fan.  i'm barely in this video (one of the Army dudes took it)...but i'm in the black Burrow jersey on right.

I don't know but I hear I had a good time.

As sad as it sounds: I watched alone (due to time difference game ended way after midnight) and there was a quick relief, but than it took me some time to come down. Such a nailbiter. Took some time to finally fall asleep but had sweet dreams

edit: looking at the Video above, that may be a differenece between (american) football and (real) football. In Europe after such a win the (real) football fans would have tore that bar down.

Was early morning here so I had brekky of bloody Mary’s and oysters and started on the beers by half time, about 10am, and when Money Mac hit that shot it was the loudest YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! I’ve ever* done.
Then drank more day beers and watched it all again.

Fixed. 

My son and I watched the game from the comfort of our couch, but we were both too nervous to sit down. It was fun though, we both raised our arms in victory when Shooter made the kick.

I'm glad Bengals fan had the moment!

I acted like I'd been there before... Two down, two to go.

Nice, did you hand the remote to the person sitting beside you as you calmly exited the room where your tv was located? I'm sensing a Barry Sanders vibe.

I screamed so loud after the pick and then after the made kick I woke my entire house up

I was standing and went ran over, grabbed my wife and picked her up. I was in complete shock.

Obligatory high five, then passed out halfway through the Packers and 49ers game... In my defense, we were watching on DVR as we had to tough out a kids birthday party during the game.

I was absolutely elated but this was kind of my feeling tbh. 

I cried like a baby when we beat the Raiders. I expected to beat the Titans and we did. It wasn't nearly as emotional but it still felt awesome. 

Not until I see that Lombardi in Burrow's hands....

I feel bad for Burrow having to hold the Lombardi and a Super Bowl MVP trophy at the same time.

Tough. That's his own fault.

Then again, maybe we win the Super Bowl 12-3 and it's Shooter holding the MVP trophy.

He can just hold one with his enormous prehensile penis.

A lot of yelling, screaming, high fiving, and thinking about my Father.

Must be nice to be able to decide that type of thing..........








I would have been standing but just feel more stable and more in control sitting.

A lot of people haven't been there before or we were too young to really enjoy it.

Why wouldn't you enjoy the ride and celebrate what we can while we can?

Being a fan is about being there through the ups and downs and enjoying every victory.

This one just felt like another level because, yes, we were the better team, but they were the #1 seed and this franchise has been snakebitten and had way too much heartbreak.

Like I said, that will be huge, but enjoy the ride and cherish every moment!

Life's short!
