Bottlegate

What wasn't mentioned in that video is that the Commissioner made the Refs finish the game, so about a half-hour after the game players came out half-dressed and lined-up and ran out the clock. Many fans were still there and my party (Gumbo, Zombo & HagII) all had just exited and we turned around and juked the security guys and ran back in. The dumbass Refs had to once again find their way to the tunnel under heavy escort.
It's on the youtuble clips t hat were posted. Click on the last one and you'll see the original end of the game that everyone saw and then it has the real end of the game with about 1000 people in the stands and only the players on the field and the coaches. Quincy Morgan was on the field on defense for the last 2 plays of the game still complaining to one of the refs about the bogus call.
I've seen you run and I have a hard time believing you juked any security guy....

Like I have mentioned before, I was there and got hit in the back of the head with a bottle by Zombo.

i don't know which game from 2001 is worse. it's either this or the chicago game. i can still remember how livid every one in my family room was when couch threw those INTs in the bears game.

i was there and it was awful. Blood and guts everywhere. Bottles being thrown as far as eyes could see. i grabbed my loved ones and headed for the exits. But in the distance i could see Atenears calling for help. Did he throw? i don't know and it didn't matter. Mayhem filled the skies.
I'm just glad that i got Sperk, Atenears, and HagII out of there before the the crowd closed in. It was awful, and that is all i can say. We got screwed and that is the end of that story.

It's all fun and games until someone gets their eye put out!! tee hee

Bottlegate added 35 lbs to my frame, and my rotator cuff has never been the same.

I miss 2001...it was nice back then because NO ONE cared about the Steelers

It wasn't just that game. I think we all can remember a number of times we got screwed by the refs. We never had a game handed to us like Pisspuke and Miami or the superbowl when pisspuke played Seattle.

I was there and was absolutely incredulous. It was like the other night when the refs called a safety on Boom Herron after he was pushed back from the 2 yd line and, after the remote had been thrown across the room, I sat there in utter amazement. Only bottlegate was 10x worse.
It goes to show that as much as we hope that the game is won and lost by the players on the field, it doesn't take much for the a-hole refs to determine an outcome.

Squintz,that call on Herron has to be one of the worst ever in football!!! He was stopped and mugged by two or three guys at the two or three yard line and pushed back into the end and legs kept moving, DUH, what was he supposed to elevate and hover? Absolutely, one of the worst calls ever in football at crucial point in the game. What the hell happened to forward progress.
BTW, I was at the bottlegate game as well and that call was not nearly as bad as tuesday's which was conveniently forgotten by the media as they flagellated the last three days on tattoogate...........
