My husband, his uncle and my son were in the end zone where Vince scored the winning TD. Sports Illustrated put out a commemorative edition.. There is a full 2-page pic of the winning TD & we can see my family members in the crowd. HOW FUN IS THAT??!!

No purple. TThere's a red rectangle around my husband and son. Also around uncle.

Trying again...

Yes! It worked! The line down the middle is the fold of the magazine. It's a two-page picture. We bought 6 copies!! Sports Illustrated Commemorative Edition.

Man. they were in the PERFECT spot to witness it.

LHMom

Yep - said they wouldn't have traded those end-zone seats for 50-yard line. They were just feet from all the players coming in/out of the tunnel, and had the winning TD scored right in front of them.

I just watched the DVD of the game and VY jumped over the reporters who are kneeling. VY must have been just a few feet from your family after he scored.

Yeah, if you know who you're looking for, you can see them for a split second on that video. Still very cool!
