Miraculous things happen in sports all the time. Even when it’s hard for a team to win, with extra hard work and some strange power, they manage to win! From the Hail Mary to The Immaculate Reception to The Catch, these are just a few examples. However, not many touch the legendary prediction made by Arnold Schwarzenegger! That’s right. Entwined in a crazy story of how Conon the Governor predicted the defeat of the Miami Dolphins at the end of the New York Jets.

The fabulous game took place on Oct. 23, 2000. Al Michaels, the then voice of Monday Night Football on ABC from 1986 to 2006, recalls the momentous and unbelievable victory of the Jets.

Precise prediction by Arnold Schwarzenegger

People were leaving the stadium. The New York Jets were losing terribly. Everybody thought it was impossible to win the match-up. The point was 30-7 until somebody the action star had ultimate trust in. It turned the game upside-down.

Al Michaels brought Schwarzenegger to the booth to keep the entertainment going. It was then he announced, “Oh, the Jets will win this game.” Whoever heard this thought it was impossible because the jets were down by 23 points! However, Arnie was adamant about the Miami Dolphins‘ loss.

“Wayne Chrebet is going to pull it off. I think as usual the Jets are going to come from behind, you will see… I think the Dolphins have to be terminated,” said Schwarzenegger. It was like the Terminator came back from the future, where he saw the unbelievable result.

The unthinkable happened!

In the fourth quarter, Laveranues Coles and Jermaine Wiggins get touchdowns. Then Vinny Testaverde hits Wayne Chrebet, a touchdown that ties the game at 30-all!

People returned to the stadium at midnight when Chrebet showed his prowess. Jay Fiedler hits Leslie Shepard for a touchdown. The score went to 37-30; with Miami being at the top. The Jets get the ball back while only 30-40 seconds remaining. Testaverde drops a pass and hits Jumbo Elliott, who hit his first ever touchdown in thirteen years! Isn’t that monumental?

People started calling that game the ‘Monday Night Miracle’ because the Jets grew out of their bleakest time and defeated the Miami Dolphins in the most impressive manner possible!
