MOOOOOOOOOOSSSSEAND THEN A HUGE ROAR. There’s a YouTube vid that I think Dave Lane posted from out in the parking lot after the last groundout that really gave a great perspective.
And of course, Denny, understated in the radio as the ball popped into Hosmer’s glove (2014):
“Kansas City… you got yourselves a World Series”.

I was at the 2014 ALCS game 4 with my wife and each of us had our brothers with us. Such a nerve racking game, I was prepared to have my heart ripped out but it never happened. Just pure joy.
Here's the parking lot video. I like how there's a low roar that gets nearly silent as the pitch is delivered and then you can hear Moose field the grounder and then the ultimate roar. It still brings tears to my eyes.
It still nearly brings me to tears.
