I remember both those "oldies", but X-Clown is special because I was there. I was sitting on the first row of the upper section behind the end zone and when Smith caught the ball he was running almost directly towards me.  The noise in the dome up to that point was insane, but it went to darn near deathly quite, save for the smattering of Panther fans in attendance, almost instantly. It was great.

Another wild Panthers' finish was in the 1st game if that season when Jake replaced Rodney Peete to start the 2nd half against Jacksonville and threw the game winning TD to Ricky Proehl on 4th down with no time left on the clock. That was damned exciting.

That game felt like the start of something special, and it actually was.

I went to App, and we had won 2 straight national championships, but I didn't give this game a second thought.  I was competing in a bbq contest in Myrtle Beach, and it was humid and hot as crap.  I had been up all night in a field, cooking 4 categories, and was waiting on the awards ceremony.  I was just collapsed in a folding chair with no tv anywhere near.  people kept coming up telling me that App was winning, etc, but I never thought they'd actually win.

Wish I could have watched it, but it wasn't an event like the entire state of Minnesota erupting and the entire state of Louisiana  crashing at once.

I have a few that standout

My first was the Frank Reich comeback in the Bills Vs Oilers playoff game, I was just starting to watch football then and remember watching that game with my grandfather by the fire during that comeback.

Second was the Music City Miracle, just got home from working all night was still a little buzzed I believe it was a morning game here on the west coast can’t remember

Third, X clown panthers vs rams, I remember falling to my knees cheering spilling my drink all over my carpet.

I didn’t even watch the Vikings & Saints game, this latest panther playoff loss just left a bitter taste in my mouth I could care less, I’m just glad the rest of the South is out.

Twice in the same year actually (2013).

"The Miracle At Jordan-Hare" play above was the winning play of the game, but it wasn't the FINAL play of the game.

The following, however, WAS the final play of the game:

The Kick Six (above) happened only one week after The Miracle At Jordan-Hare.  So I experienced both of these miraculous endings in a period of 8 days.

It was fun.  :P

(And, yes, the above play-by-play narration is the Auburn radio announcer.)

(P.S. And by "experiencing" I was actually at both games.)
