This day in 1980

I was 8, and for some reason watching the end of the game in our kitchen with my dad on our little black-and-white. All I remember was dad saying "holy **** I can't believe it, holy **** I can't believe it". I didn't know what the big deal was, we were the USA, best in the world at everything, so I asked him why he couldn't believe it. "No way we're supposed to beat these ******* guys, no way in hell." Miracle, enthused swearing, and Old Milwaukee cans on the counter. Great memory.
