Worst losses suffered as a fan?

For me it would probably be 2006. We entered the Suns series as big time underdogs, got a 3-1 series lead, and ended up choking. Tim Thomas and Raja Bell we both [expletive]s the entire series so that just added to the excitement of the whole series, and on top of that Kobe's game-winner in game 4 really would put this series at the top as one of the most epic playoff wins. Little did I know we would drop 3 straight games. The Suns were absolutely stacked that year too (compared to the Lakers atleast), so I gave Prodigy a whole bunch of [expletive] about them when they were down 3-1. The loss definitely stung me more on a personal level.

 

lol I remember I was devastated when Kobe hit that shot, also thought it was all over with all the momentum L.A had up 3-1. But we found a way to force to game 7 and then kill you guys by 40, and you didn't have [expletive] to say then. :lol:

Wanted to comment on the Game 6 2008 posts. For me, that was not the disappointing loss in the series. Instead, by far, it was game 4. By game 6, I had already accepted the fact that the series was over. I stopped watching once the lead started growing and we looked dead in the water. I lost all hope in a series win after game 4, which to me, was the worst loss as a Lakers fan

I was going to mention the '01 World Series. But even though the ending to that season was a heartbreaker (I was too young to follow it live, but watching it years after and looking back upon it, I've familiarized myself with the sequence of events), that series may be considered by some fans as one of their favorites. Weeks after the 9/11 attacks, the fashion in which the Bombers took Games 3, 4, and 5 was incredible. To win all three World Series games played in the Bronx meant a lot to the city and the state.

I was sitting front row in right field for Jeter's walkoff, the ball landed maybe 5 feet in front of me. I can still see myself when they show the replays on YES :)

 

I honestly thought the stadium was going to collapse when Tino tied the game in the 9th, and it was honestly mass hysteria when Jeter walked off. Never hugged and high fived so many random strangers in my life.
