What a great moment, just for Arthur.

I was in a bar watching the game with my sister (EMAW), bro in law (EMAW in training) and his family (non-EMAWs). Even though the game was in hand, i stood up and let out a pretty loud "YEAH!" while pumping each of my arms up and down. They understood that it was good for K-State, but didn't really understand my ostentatious appreciation for this touchdown in particular.

My Dad and I were talking on the phone today, and he put it pretty well. He said that it was a time where the whole stadium could cheer just for Arthur. The crowd wasn't cheering for any reason in the context of the game, really. In its simplest form, it was just another meaningless turnover and touchdown in a game that was already in hand.

But for us, it was more than that. It was a moment for EMAWs in attendance and around the world to pause and give a big loud "YEAH!" in appreciation of Arthur Brown. A great player, and an even better man.

I did the same thing too as well. When ABJ made that interception, I was flashing

like a rough ridin' boss.

I jumped up and fist pumped etc. Spilled my beer. Was a great moment.

Favorite moment of 2012? It might be my favorite moment of 2012. Hubert's flex in Norman or Baby Lockett's toe tap in WV would be other nominees.

Have the game on in a different tab, and after reading this thread I switched over to the game. What play was just beginning? You guessed it.

THE JUDGE PRESIDING!

While watching the game on tv I was mostly quiet (just clapping & fist pumping). But when ABJ got the pick 6 I jumped up & yelled really loud. I didn't even hear Gus say "ARTHUR..........BROWN...........JR. Touchdown K-State!"

Arthur deserved this moment a million times over. I suspect he will do it again.

I'm amazed that Daygee didn't throw more picks, felt like we dropped a dozen

That was effing awesome. Gus and the rest of the ~~FOX~~ K-State network crew are great.

Was a KU side of the fam's house. Sound wasn't on. They rewound it twice to see it replayed. TSC'ing and that is saying a lot from this specific crew. Also, they love the KstateMask. Love him. Like, a lot. They have all watched all of his vids and like them. Not in a do so to make fun of KSU way, but they actually think it is funny.

They always try to talk to me about them and they can't understand why I have only watched one.

They might feel that Mask vids are of high artistic value, as well as kinda gay. Squaks can relate, I guess.

He basically blew the doors off the game with that play. BOOM.

Hubert crushing that D-Back to take the ball to the pylon was also an awesome moment, IMHO.

Yes, when he bounced outside and turned that corner I believe that was an example of this team 'bowing up'
