I'm not even American and I remember where I was on this day.
My daughter was a baby, and I was visiting my parents in Littleton MA and we watched this game.
It was amazing!

I was 14 watched in amazement at the game. The nhl all stars lost 6-0 to this same USSR team. I remember because Cheevers was in net and all my Habs friends blamed him lol
Not televised live. Listening on the radio . . . could barely hear the last few minutes.
Truly didn't believe it till we watched on TV several hours later.

I was 9 and didn’t know it was on delay and when my dad got home from work he pulled the huge tv (not big screen, just a 125 lb. piece of furniture style TV) into the doorway between the kitchen and living room so we could eat dinner while watching.
He knew they won, but wanted me to enjoy it as it (happened) at least in my mind.

2 weeks earlier the USA played a friendly against the Soviets at Madison Sq Garden and tanked the game. - Brooks had no intention of showing his hand until he had to

I remember all of it. That team really impressed my father with their skating, and he, like me, was not easily impressed.
