Last night, the Toronto Maple Leafs made me cry

That game, was well, unbelievable. From start (okay, maybe not start) to finish, the Maple Leafs had us, the fans, on edge. It might’ve finally gave me the sense that it may be okay to believe in this team now.
And as much as people think, “oh it was one good four-minute span,” I don’t think you put it that way. They made a statement. In a playoff game, which was also an elimination game.
Here’s my reaction:
From start to finish, this video has a lot of yelling and crying, so be ready. Oh and also, if the Leafs win the series, when should I eat the Carolina Reaper?
Because apparently, now, I have to eat three (which seems like a death sentence to me). All because the Maple Leafs won, and you know what? I couldn’t be happier.
