Where were you…

Ten weeks and one day ago; the day we won the Olympics?

I was at the Molson Hockey House and it was insane. Some people were at work, at home, on the street, or even at the game.

Jlishere put together a couple of fantastic videos from the Gold Medal Goal as well as the brief time that we were tied with the USA and there was the chance, (well not really), that we might lose this important game.

As written by Jlishere:

Relive one of our nation's proudest moments, captured in this compilation of reactions; from small town bars to big city streets, homes and public places in Vancouver, across the country and even abroad. An explosion of flag waving, cheers, spontaneous chants and anthems, random high fives, a sea of red and white, and lots of beer (for "some")!
The Vancouver Games brought a whole nation together. On February 28th, millions of Canadians braced for the men's hockey final. With only 24 seconds left to go in the 3rd period, USA scored a tie, forcing the gold medal game into overtime. Shocked, but not yet devastated, Canadians rallied and stayed on the edge of their seats.
On the final day of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games, Canadians witnessed a record-breaking gold medal, bringing the total to 14. The hockey final became the most-watched television event in our history. Just hours away from the Closing Ceremonies, the outburst of pride happened on a scale not seen in Canada's recent memory.

So where were you when Sidney scored the overtime goal? Who were you with? How did you celebrate afterward?
