Nickal Pin: Reactions

[liex26]

Sorry Hawk fans, but I couldn't keep this to myself. My family and I were watching the match again on TiVo and my son was paying attention to the crowd and pointed out these two guys.

We re-watched it several times , laughing the whole time. There are many faces of awe in the crowd, hopefully we'll see some more screenshots. I doubt any are better than these two!

He shut up the entire arena....lol..They should be used to it by now....

I noticed them last night as I was watching the match. Gave me a healthy chuckle. Lol

Prior to that Penn state fans were feeling bad for Mark Hall and Hawks were elated as could be for Meyer. Game changer

... and my son was paying attention to the crowd ...

Fun reactions. Is it greedy to want, in addition, crying kids and crying cheerleaders?

Not ever greedy to want a cheerleader.

Did you see Brooks' reaction? That was priceless as well.

He was stunned. As if he was thinking, wtf just hit me? Lol

I was on the fence on whether he has a good chance to defeat Gabe Dean but not after this.

Almost as good as the reaction from several fans last year at the time of the pin of IMar. The look on several was absolutely priceless. Total shock and depression.

I have to confess, my first reaction was, because this was what I saw from my vantage point, holy <expletive>, Nickal just got stuck. Because that's who's shoulders I saw...I certainly didn't see the spladle in. It was only when the crowd went mute that I figured out that Nickal got the fall.

Bo has a way of ticking off Iowa fans. Remember the guy flipping out after he pinned Martin at the BigTen Championships.

liex, great post! I was looking for the right material to bring over to the hawk fans that argued with me about how Brooks was going to take it to Bo.

If you watch the clip on Flo, you can see one particular fan in a white shirt go ballistic and celebrate, but his enormous friend pacing like he lives in Iowa and this is his entire world has to explain to him that Bo pinned Mullet.

Glorious.

Young blondie fair queen from Davenport is non plussed also. hand on chin.

Great reactions from the other angle -- and OBTW a perfect view of Bo's right shoulder being off the mat. It touched very briefly at 0:14, and it was very close to the mat, but it was clear.

You mean Bo's new girlfriend...

"Did you see Brooks' reaction? That was priceless as well."

At first I thought Brooks dropped an "f" bomb but upon further review it simply appears to be a stunned "WOW".

When the ref first called the fall I was almost certain it was against Bo and after viewing Flo's video I'm wondering if the ref could rule a double fall.....lol.
Both their shoulders appear to be flat!

I was on the Iowa board and to my knowledge none have seen the Flo vid!

 

[Chickenman Testa]

It would not make any sense to call a pin on the guy in total control of the other guy. Brooks was helpless

Funny stuff, but in all fairness, I'm sure that our faces looked very similar when DT was in on a leg and Jenkins cradled him in Philadelphia.

No doubt.

I don't think it's funny because it causes pain for Iowa fans. I live in Iowa, I talk to "wrestling fans" all the time and they don't even know many of the PSU guys. So to me it's funny because many of them just found out what we already knew. Bo is explosive!

I'm not implying that general wrestling knowledge anywhere else is better, just what I see myself is all. I would assume it's like that everywhere.

Absolutely true, I know that's about the look I had on my face. Mine may have been more contorted actually.

My memory is not the best, but I *believe* this is the photo of Goldbanger I took right after the Jenkins match in Philly:
