Where were you when Poole hit that shot?
I was at a house-warming party, sitting in a corner watching the game on my phone. Literally screamed and dropped my phone, scared the living shit out of everyone!
streaming on my phone. A few other Michigan fans gatherered around and we let out screams that scared most of the bride's family. I'm okay with it.
Haymaker in Ann Arbor. Many hugs with strangers. It was awesome.
My living room. I'd walked into the kitchen to make some tea, while consoling myself over the loss. Hey, it was a great season. We get to hang a banner. We'll be even better next year. I drifted back to watch the end and close out the season right--to be a real fan and stick through till the end, as sick as I felt. I missed the missed free throws but got back in time for the in-bounds pass...and that shot by Swaggy Poole. And then I yelled OH MY GOD. Then I came here and typed that on the first thread I saw. What a fucking game.
That would be bad at a house warming party.
I know, you literally screamed. I can't go to sleep cuz I'm all jacked up/
Hey web meisters, can we get a picture of Mr. Poole on the banner instead of Potatohead MAAR? It is worthy!
I definitely shed a single tear...I had flash backs of Jmorgan with the failed tip back and then next thing I know is Trey 2.0 with the fate. CRIIIIIPES! I’m drunk and née d to go to bed.
I was in G.R. at Gardella's. It was interesting how many people perked up during the last few minutes of the game that hadn't been watching at all the rest of the time. Had to stand up for the final moments to get a view. I had a calm feeling the entire time as the game came down to Michigan actually having a shot. I felt especially calm because all the friends I was with were State fans and had moments of kind of being dicks as Michigan seemed to lose their chance to win (one friend was making comments about how bad Michigan looked after the first couple minutes of the game to which I replied "have you watched basketball before?") Shot went in and all hell broke loose. Some dude fell to the floor, chairs were knocked over, screamed and hugged multiple dudes while running around like crazy. It was a magical moment. It was somehow more shocking than Trey Burke vs. Kansas. Left the bar after that for a smoke and enjoyed some more celebration with people walking by. I've watched the replay so many times already, and it's still hard to comprehend. Insane moment that we'll all remember for quite some time.
Woke up at 4 am local time to watch the game and was pissed at my self for wasting sleep...until POOOOOOOOLLLLLLLEEEE!!!!!!!!
I've been seeing for a little bit, and I was watching most of the game in the car ride home to her house. Absolutely miserable ride home because I kept talking to my phone. Watched the last 3.9 seconds with her parents and went absolutely berserk. I was hoping to wait a bit longer before introducing her to how fucking obsessed I am with 18-22 year olds I've never met, but oh well. Her old man is a Syracuse fan, so I really hope we both have a great weekend ;)
Y'all peoples can thank me for this one. Well, me and comcast.
See, I've personally jinxed Michigan sports for the past decade. It's like schroedinger's cat for me, but whenever I watch it, it fucking dies.
It starts 10 years back. My first game at Michigan Stadium? Season opener 2007.
Held up all this season.
Game 1 of football season, I tune in late because I couldn't get home in time. I turn the game on, back to back picks to keep florida in. Entire season was like that.
I turned off Michigan State halfway through the rain and we nearly made a comeback. Yup, I turned the game back on.
I watched Penn State from the start. We gave up the two long TDs and I had to leave to drive home. We start catching up and some dumbass texts me and tells me about it. I turn on the radio and suddenly Penn State puts us away.
See, y'all think Belien just develops players. No, I get crushed by heartbreaking early losses against mediocre opponents and stop following the team early on in conference play. I stop watching; they start winning.
Today, Comcast shit the bed. I'm trying to stream the game at home and the internet and my cable TV go out. I can't watch most of the game and miss the ending.
You're welcome. I think for the sake of the rest of the fanbase, I can no longer watch Michigan sports live because I'm pretty sure the entire past decade of Michigan Fan torture may be solely my fault.
One of the crazier moments of my life. 4 Michigan students aborad in Sydney, streaming the game off of a laptop going absolutly apeshit. What a time to be alive
I was sitting on my sofa with my phone - my wife and kids were long since asleep and the dog and cats were sitting in various corners of the family room. As soon as that shot went in, I jumped up, the dog got up, the cats scattered, I spilled what was my ninth Guinness and began running around quietly screaming "HOLY SHIT!".

I'd like to introduce you to an interesting concept:
