Where were you when your team won the ship?

It was literally crazy as a fan everyone just roamed the streets in hoards... The parade was even better... Moving throughout the city from the view from office to Jr Smith dancing to Kevin love with the belt...

Yes! There was no rules lol. And you're right, the parade was epic too. There were so many people and parking was so scarce so many people were just parked illegally right off highway exits. I love watching videos that capture how many people were downtown. Absolutely insane.

When the Astros won I was at home. I was at the country bar I used to bounce at when my Titans came up 1 yard short, so I'm still waiting.

No comment on the Astros, that's a sore subject. But the Titans! They had a great year last season, really surprised me. They demolished the Browns in the opener and really knocked Baker and the team off their high horse.

My Raptors and Blue Bombers (CFL) both won the championships last year.
I was on the couch, with my 2 year old beside me, and we were both cheering like mad.
I was cheering for the team, he was cheering me lol.

10 year old Matty was living it up at my parent’s bar and restaurant! We had a full house for the Twins 91 World Series win. Best WS ever?

That's cool, you probably felt like a king. Don't know much about that WS, honestly.
 
Crying on my couch in my living room in 2006.
 
1986 Chicago Bears: Parents were out of town so threw a party at my house. Kegger, food and a TV in every room even the bathroom so you wouldnt miss the action! For the Chicago Bulls and Blackhawks my days off were cancelled so I was working but definetly listened on the radio. 2016 Cubs since they played Game 7 in Cleveland I was able to watch it on my couch with my son on his birthday so that made it even more special!

Sitting on my couch when the 2008 Phillies won after game 5 was restarted in the 6th inning. It was just my wife and I since the first game was called in the sixth due to rain.

For the 2017 Eagles, all I can remember was how load my house got as a few us yelled when Brady was sacked and fumbled to make it look as the Eagles won the Super Bowl. It’s funny as the house wasn’t as load after the Hail Mary from Brady fell to the ground giving the Eagles the actual win.

I will never forget The Philly Special. What an upset.

2016 Chicago Cubs. I watched it at my buddies house, almost left when the rain delay hit. Luckily I didn’t, it was amazing!

I also remember the Chicago Bulls Dynasty from the 90’s. Got to watch Jordan play in person, just amazing.

I would have loved to watch Jordan live. The 🐐

And why did you have to bring up that rain delay?? It was the demise of the Tribe 😭 That home run Rajai Davis hit was so legendary.. Wish it would have mattered. That was a great World Series and it made the sting hurt less since it was the Cubs and their history and long draught.

Haha that is amazing. The helmet catch by Tyree..

 
On my girlfriend's couch in 2011 when the Packers last won a Super Bowl. Theres not much more special in sports than when the Lombardi Trophy goes back home to Green Bay, when it belongs.

The Patriots first Super Bowl win I was sitting next to the 4th season ticket holder in my group. We were both pretty stunned and I remember hugging.
Sad thing was he passed away before we got the seats, We never filled the 4th seat permanently. Great memories is what sports are about!

Those are awesome memories. Sports definitely build inseparable bonds and lasting friendships!
 
I'm a Minnesota fan so my only major memories I can recall is where I was when I got disappointed.
 
I was sitting on my neighbor's back patio the day the Cavs won it all. Such a fantastic ending to the game, series, and. Cleveland's championship drought.

Just waiting on the Indians to win one now...
 
My team was rejected twice in the superbowl.
 
In my house, with my wife and best friend w/ his wife watching Brady get sacked and fumbled. I started screaming and jumping up & down, woke up my kid.
 
Can you believe a city the size of Houston went without any national championships until the Rockets won back-to-back NBA titles in '94 and '95???

Anyway, we were all glued to the TV in 1994. 1995 was special though as I had just moved to Phoenix and had joined a basketball group at Phoenix City Club. During the playoffs, the Phoenix Suns took a 3-0 lead on the Rockets and all the Phoenix guys were trash talking and rubbing it in. It was AWESOME when the Rockets took that Western semifinal series on the way to the '95 title!
 
I was at home when Kentucky won the NCAA tournament in 1996, 1998, and 2012. I was also at home when they lost the Championship game in 1997 and 2014.

Hung this beauty in the garage today, and couldn't help but reminisce on the 2016 season when the Cavs won it all and brought the first championship to Cleveland since 1964. There was no room in any bars downtown Cleveland so I was with a group of friends at the casino watching game 7 against the Warriors. Late in the game.. "Iguodala to Curry, back to Iguodala, up for the layup! Oh! Blocked by James! LeBron James with the rejection!" Chills just writing up this post. I will never forget it. Most of us have experienced this moment. With no sports being played, this is a perfect time to look back and relive these moments. What do you got for me THP fam?

I got lucky and was at the outdoor watch party...I think I hugged 1,000 people that night. You might have been one of them! I freaking love that sign...I may need to get one.
 
Red Sox in '04, I stayed up to watch it with my dad. Reason I'm a Sox fan is because of him, so that was really cool.

Was at home down glasses of whiskey when the Raptors won last year. Was a tough day at work the day after.

I'll be in a casket by time the Leafs win the Cup.
 
Watching my Packers defeat the Steelers in Super Bowl XLV in 2011 at home was terrific.
 
A's - parents living room couch. I don't exactly remember winning it because all my memories are of the big earthquake during the series. During THAT, I was under the dining room table. It was a big one.

Warriors - 2015/2017 at a sports bar in my hometown. 2018 my friends and I were in New Orleans. As a long time suffering Warriros fan, this run of titles was nothing short of an amazing and wild experience.
 
Kansas City Chiefs - watched both Super Bowl IV and Super Bowl LIV with two of my brothers.

San Francisco Giants - watched 2010, 12 and 14 Series at home.
 
When my Astros legitimately won the 2017 World Series I was on my couch in AZ and scared my dog when I celebrated.

I was a huge John Elway fan growing up and I just couldn't get behind the sorry @$$ Oilers living in Houston. When the Broncos won Super Bowl XXXII over the Packers I was in my college dorm room stunned by the final minutes of the game. Very mild celebration from just being exhausted after the game.

I am now a Texans fan so will never get to experience a Super Bowl win as I think BoB just traded our next 30 first round draft picks for beer vendors. It might be time to accept my AZ home team now.
 
I can't remember the last time the Flyers won back in 75, do remember watching the finals they lost. However, I was watching with my family the day the Sixers did win in 83.
 
As a Utah Jazz fan I have yet to see them win one, just come up close. My Red Wings and Real Salt Lake I was just living at my parents as I was still in high school so I was watching in their basement.
