[QUOTE="ILLINIShox24, post: 1535804, member: 10391"] I was lucky to be a junior along with Dee, Deron, and James. I was at home that weekend, perhaps it was spring break, watching the game at my house. I left to go to my friend's house down the street as the AZ lead maxed out and a bunch of us were going to play poker after. I got there as the comeback started. I almost punched a hole in his ceiling with several jumping fist pumps. After it was all over, I sprinted down the freezing cold street blasting an air horn that I saw on the counter. The liquid inside ended up leaking all over my hand and giving me frost like burns. Upon my return, my out of shape for winter sprints lungs weren't keeping up and my blood pressure dropped to like 70/40 and i started to black out. Luckily my friend was a paramedic so he got me seated and I never went fully out. The actual paramedics were called and arrived a few minutes later, but by then I was bouncing back. Went on to play poker in the glory of the most memorable comeback ever. I'll never forget that day. [/QUOTE]
