Epic 3-goal comeback vs Tampa Bay. Gio bicycle kick. First win in Metro history.

The crowd that day was crazy.  I think it was like 53k or something? Anyways, our actual first win was that 3-0 over Colorado about two weeks later (5/16); the 5th game into the season.

They've got a piece on this at the Red Bulls site. Fans are talking about the game.  The first person must have been a young child at the game.  They don't identify anyone by name.

The video on there was made in 1996, after the season. If I remember correctly, Kris Dyer was in that video at some point (?)

I was there, sitting in the end zone mezzanine behind the goal where Gio scored his bike. Great stuff!
