Hardcore troubadour 12,631 Posted February 22, 2020 40 years ago today. Greatest sporting moment in our countries history. A bunch of college kids and NHL cast offs shocked the world against the greatest hockey team assembled in history. It was on tape delay and I somehow heard they had won, but I didn’t believe it and watched as if they hadn’t. Jim Craig wrapped in the flag was incredible. God bless America. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thornton Melon 544 Posted February 22, 2020 I didn't find out until a couple of weeks later that I had watched a tape delay. I thought it was live. That certainly helped the experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That game wasn't even for the Gold Medal. They had to still go on to beat Finland for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
