Oh, good, it wasn't just me

Terry O'Neill, 50, of Pittsburgh, was watching the game at a bar and had a heart attack seconds after Jerome Bettis fumbled trying to score from the 2-yard line late in the fourth quarter. Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger prevented the Colts' Nick Harper from returning the recovered ball for a touchdown and the Steelers hung on for a 21-18 win.

I need a defibrillator in the house. And I need to teach the birds how to use it. "Pretty bird! CLEAR! Pretty pretty! Wheet-woo!"

I was having heart palpitations at that time too.

That was one crazy play. I was like...if they come back and win this one, I may just have a heart attack.

Crazy shit.

You be careful around those pretty birds, y'hear?

(Just how much do you have to repeat something for a parrot to pick it up, anyway?)
