That’s right, you could be headed to Madison Square Garden just for going through your pictures and videos of the greatest shot in Villanova Basketball history. For me personally, I was huddled in my basement with friends and family trying hard not to wake our 4 month old daughter when Kris Jenkins hit the shot for the championship. We cheered, cried, group hugged... and miraculously still didn’t wake up my daughter!
As long as you’re sharing with Villanova Basketball, be sure to post your memories of the 2016 National Championship in the comments below! And in case that night is still a little hazy for some of you, here’s a quick refresher.
