You know after wtaching this I started thinking about it and I don't think I've ever been beat by a miracle shot like this. I've been real lucky to have been on the other side of these though. When I get beat I usually get beat handily though hehe.

I'll never forget the NCAA tourney a few years back (believe it was the year after they had won the tournament) when Drew Nicholas of Maryland hit a miracle running three from the corner to beat UNC-Wilmington in the first round. I had a TON riding on Maryland on the moneyline and MD was like -8 or so, so it was like a -400 or so moneyline (I know I know... idiot bet. Actually now that I think about it the moneyline was less than what it should have been due to people pounding UNC-W on the moneyline.. believe it was in the -320 to -360 range... still real heavy chalk that I don't usually like eating but I couldn't resist this time). I'll never forget that one. I was jumping up and down like a fairy in an embrace with a friend of mine who also had the Terps large at a Damon's restaurant up front in full view of everyone in front of the big screens. This black guy was also jumping up and down and came over and joined in on "the embrace" lmao! We didn't even know the guy... but it was glorious lol! He probably had a big bet laid down as well hahaha.
