My bro and I had just moved down from the upper bowl, seeking better seats for the final quarter or so. We sat in the corner of the endzone that he received the kick in.
The crescendo of sound in the stadium legit sounded like a Jet engine or several jets. Total roar The circling around and then the realization that he had daylight... just crowd-o-meter meltdown lol |

There were like 3 different blocks in the back that weren't called on that play. It was still amazing though.
|
A bunch of us from 37 Forever were at that game. I had really good seats; lower level, 40 yard line or so, about 15 rows up. I'll never forget how loud the crowd was during that return, you could feel it. I thought the concrete was going to explode.
That was one of funnest weekends of my life. |

From 2006: Blocks in the back above the waist by the kicking team while the ball is in flight during a scrimmage kick are illegal. Link: https://www.playsmartplaysafe.com/ne...es-since-2002/ |

It was unique in my experience. I've attended a good number of concerts and sporting events. Nothing comes close. Truly memorable. |

Was at the game. Such an amazing moment but at the time never would've thought "all-time", mainly because this was the 7th time he'd done it in just that one season. It definitely stands out as the best of them, though. Great memory.
|
You guys are probably going to roast me for saying this but that return shouldn’t have counted. Look at that play closely and there are two illegal blocks in the back.
Don’t get me wrong, love the play but we got lucky on that one. Still great juking by Dante Hall though. Props to him! |

Senior year of high school as well.
Our season tickets were in the endzone where he caught it. Definitely one of those plays where you're like "No wtf are you doing!!!! YES GOOOOO lol" |

I made a thread with this a while back but no one seemed to notice. Really cool stories that I had never heard before. |
Didn’t Hall return one where he rolled over the defender’s back? Or was that one called back on a penalty? Man, feels like forever ago.

I was not at the Ravens game last year, but when Hill caught that pass on 4th down, it was the loudest the stadium had ever sounded on my television. Sent from my GM1915 using Tapatalk |
We had season tickets then and were halfway up in the upper level. Being up so high, most of the sound is in front of you. I was amazed how loud it was where we were, can't imagine what it was like on the field.
By the way, **** the donks. |
What was interesting about Dante Halls career was that it took him until year 3 to really bust out.
I remember in 2000-01 he didn’t really do much. They kept saying how explosive he was but he never had any TDs those first few seasons. Heading into 2002 it felt like he was going to be a bust. Then he just broke out in 2002-2003 |

I get it won't make any greatest list but would love to see that play where R.C.Owens (college basketballer) jumped up and blocked a field goal while standing under the crossbar.
