Posted June 1st, 2004 @ 09:50pm by Erik J. Barzeski
Question: Did you watch the 1980 Olympics USA vs. USSR hockey game?
My Answer: I was not yet two at the time. If I could find a copy of it somewhere, I would watch it today, though.

I was less the 2 weeks old with the Miracle happened, but I was always intrigued by the story. Although, during the 2002 Games here in Salt Lake City, I had the opportunity to meet several of the players on the 1980 team.

Yep. I watched it, and it was one of the greatest games I've ever seen in any sport. I was 5 years old at the time.

I watched it, though I knew nothing about hockey (sue me -- I was a 12-year old Black kid from Detroit.)
