Yeah is a different kind of feeling. When my little girl was born it was amazing but I had 9 months to build up to it and knew what was coming. 

I approve of "Wee girls born on the day of a cup final"  I also respect The Hibees for their enduring commitment to this thread.

My wee yin was born in Little France, May 4th 2002.  The birthing unit had a telly which we watched until the score was 1 for us and 2 to them.  My ex "crowned" so off with the telly and on with the birth.

Two results that day:  A lovely wee lassie and a Scottish Cup..

I was stuck under the fat lass next to me who took a tumble trying to see who scored. Scenes though. The winning goal when its not going your way is great. First major trophy for us was special. Cant imagine it having being a hoodoo breaker (then again that was my 3rd final with ICT about time i went home happy)



The scenes in our cup final were fairly tame compared to the semi final win. I ended up miles away from my seat and spent a good 5 minutes trying to get back to it after May's second against Aberdeen.

The cup final however I jumped around hugging random people screaming at the top of my voice before suddenly shitting myself as I slowly begun to realise we were winning the cup. The scariest 8 minutes of my life as I tried to watch what was left.

A tear in my eye watching those videos again. One of the greatest moments in Scottish football history.

No idea how all the Hibs fans weren't all in floods of tears during "Sunshine on Leith". Totes emosh.

 

My pals missus has a cracking video of him trying to belt out Sunshine on Leith before bursting into tears and hugging his old man at full time. I Think thats when i realised how much that final meant to everyone.

The sudden collective explosion of emotion (especially given the manner in which the game unfolded) was a different thing altogether. It makes me sad I'll never get that experience again. We could scud Hearts 7-0 in the final in the future (we probably won't) but I still don't think it would even come close to that day.

Yep, echo that entirely. It is actually a bit shit knowing I'll never have that feeling again.  Even random stuff leading up to it like Fenlon being in our pub before the game everything seems like it was leading up to that moment but nobody knew it was going to happen.

I wonder how many were conceived on the day of last year's! Watch for a sudden spike in the birth rate in Leith next month...
