    Sorry to say that I was not able to attend the game, as I was in NYC for a few days.

    At the gate, I was watching the game closely before boarding, in which I saw VY throw an INT in the endzone. For reference, it is not a good thing to scream and yell in JFK around a bunch of sleeping passengers.

    In the plane, I was scrolling the game tracker on my cell phone. It was fourth and whatever for what seemed like ten minutes. My tracker finally lost the signal when it was knotted up at 17.

    The flight took three hours, and let me tell you there was nothing more excruciating than waiting and waiting to get on the ground to find out the outcome.

    I had to have independent verification from three different people that yes, we had one the game with a 60-yard field goal.

    Absolutely incredible, and kudos to all of the fans that are having a hard time speaking today.

    Thought you couldn't turn on cell phones on planes?

    You are correct, but pulling away from the gate, and learning that we were aircraft 19 in line for departure, I kept that sucker on.

    The only, and I mean only, time I was pleased for long delays in getting off the ground.

    I needed another 60 seconds to get the final. Man it was horribly excruciating!

    Don,

    Perhaps you should stay away from ALL Titans games.

    did you think it wasn't worth using the pay air-phone in the seat in front of you? if that was available would you have? Imagine that long flight finding out we had lost.
