Sephiroth Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I was there for that game and it was fucking awesome. This was before 9/11, so they didn't warn the crowd ahead of time that jets would fly overhead during the (Kate Mara) national anthem. They strafed the stadium and scared the shit out of everyone... and we pretty much rode that adrenaline wave for the next three hours and never sat back down. Two defensive plays that didn't show up in the highlights... on Minnesota's second drive, on third down Culpeper tried scrambling and had nothing but open field in front of him... Jessie Armstead came flying from center field and stopped him for a four yard gain. Next series on third down, Culpepper heaved a pass for Moss in the end zone who somehow ended up being covered by our 3rd string/ slot guy (I think his name was McKinnon). The pass was incomplete, Moss hurt himself falling on the ball and basically stopped trying for the rest of the game. It was pretty obvious that the special plays that had been Minnesota's bread and butter all season wasn't gonna work on these guys. I got to see this with my old man and I'll never fucking forget it. It was a really special day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Senior year of high school. I was working in the kitchen of a pizza place with a tiny TV set up. I then worked the first half of the super bowl and then got shitty drunk on Milwaukee’s best and Hennessy. we also stupidly put the henny in a bong as the bong water that night. i think I fell asleep in the snow for a while lol.

Good for you man This was one of my top ten games ever I enjoyed watching this It was painful to see Kerry Collins run scared from the Ravens defense all Super Bowl Trent Dilfer was awful for the Ravens and the phantom hold on the Giants tackle still has never been seen again by Referee Ed Hochuli AKA Hock A Fuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we all saw as finally getting good, was actually the beginning of the end of an era. I feel like super bowl losses really hurt a franchise. Worse than just losing in the conference championship.

Yes, Fassel caught Lightning in the bottle and then Collins gets the worst case of Happy Feet in creation at the wrong time. I get that the Ravens defense was big time but no better than any killer NFC defense Collins played against That pick six against Dilfer would have changed the whole game. Hock A Fuck called it back though. Funny how no one outside of a studio has ever seen that play again. Holding on a Defensive Lineman in Hamilton against an RB that he was chucking. A real bad call that gifted the Ravens the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always said that's because the loser of the Superbowl isn't the 2nd best team in the NFL, they're the loser of the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
