    Question is, how many turned out the next day for the parade.
    Think I only remember a police quote of 100,000+
    How are these things even estimated?
    It was over 150,000

    Only a big team could take 100,000

    Big difference with a parade is many members of families turn up for the day as it's rather special.

    We have around 1400 ST's and another 3-4k walk ups, not really that bad for an attendance of around 22-23k for a final.

    Does anyone know of any Hibs fans being in the rangers end? Now that would be a wild experience

    Think there were overseas fans who had travelled for the cup final and decided to take in the replay too. Can remember a few exotic flags in Johnny Foxes afterwards!
    Alaska Hibs flag was beside me at the game

    I hope you meant 14,000 STs?

    I haven't got any photos of myself on the pitch, but managed to get this wee beauty when the team bus passed us on the M8

    It looks like John Doolan and Taff I think.

    Even 3 years on seeing a picture like that makes me swell with pride and emotion at the achievement of that day and yes I was there and the picture of my two kids on the pitch with me has pride of place on my desk at work in Glasgow as I know it still irks The Rangers fans there 😂

    I was at every cup tie bar the final even though I had a ticket for the final I couldn’t go due to circumstances on the day. Gutted doesn’t come close.

    It was the only Hibs cup semi-final or final one of my friends couldn't get to in over 50 years following us.

    We rang him from the cab on the way home and sang about the jinx being lifted

    Reminds me of the 1/4 away tie in Inverness. Everyone I speak to now tells me they were there, a few hundred hardy souls that night has turned into thousands in the 3 years since.
    I was there. With witnesses
