In the final minute of the Army-Navy game, near the goal line, the ball was fumbled and Navy took over, leading by four points. Army had lost their golden chance to win for the first time in ten years.

The photo in the discussion area shows the excitement that had filled the stadium just seconds before.

Just a short moment before, the cadets in the stands were ELECTRIC with excitement as they were inches from scoring the winning touchdown. It was NOT to be. Alas.

  IT's NEVER OVER TILL IT's OVER . The JOY & AGONY of participating in sport . The highest highs & lowest lows . Regardless of what people who have never participated may think, this process builds character
you don't ever get in a classroom .

Nice Shooting

Jack

  Great capture but having been in the Navy for 11 years for me it was a GO NAVY moment.
