EDIT: Oops, meant to put this in the Other Sports section, although I guess it works here too.

Look at the lines directly below that pic with Strahan and buddy, it's the second paragraph after that, right before all the lines go italicized. You'll see a line is blue, this is the link. Click it. There's 64 pics/vids in all.

That is such a great story. He must have felt like such a hero after that. I wonder who the first person he told was.

Dude needs to take some photography lessons. Other than that that's got to be the ultimate for a fan. Very cool stuff. Lucky guy.

Haha no kiddin, I was thinking the same thing. He was probably so nervous that as soon as it'd flash, he'd pull the camera away to move onto the next person, instead of just holding it for a second afterwards. That and he was probably shaking with excitement the entire time.

Would kind of suck though to go through all that, then at the end of the day you look at all your pictures and their all blurry.
