This night is why I will always love the song “Oh what a night” by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. Every time I hear it it reminds me of this epic event.

We watched in a bar filled with people. I’ve never seen so many grown men cry in one room. It’s was amazing.

Blows my mind we have Wings fans who are 27 y/o adults that have no memory of this. We still love you, but it was an incredible night to be a Detroiter and r/oldreddit remembers it like it was yesterday.

This was the greatest moment for Detroit, as a city, in my lifetime…
I jus remember people being everywhere. It didn’t matter what city you went to, people were out celebrating…
Even in Dearborn, like I didn’t even know Arabs watched hockey, but from Detroit all the way out to ypsi, people were out jus having a great fucking night.
I was around for the Bad Boys, and although those were great, and so were the Goin to Work Boys, but the 97 Stanley Cup will always be the greatest celebration…
