Immaculate Reception

The Immaculate Reception is a famous NFL moment from 1972, during a playoff game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Oakland Raiders. Near the end of the game, a Steelers player, Franco Harris, caught a deflected football just inches off the ground and ran it into the end zone, scoring a game-winning touchdown. The play was controversial because it was unclear whether the ball touched the ground or a teammate before Harris caught it. Despite debates, it's celebrated as one of the most iconic plays in football history, symbolizing clutch performance and football's unpredictable drama.
