Not "Viral" by any stretch, but one of my MLB '10 videos (which was also a demonstration of Sounds of The Show) pulled in 27k views for some reason. I still don't know why. Comparatively speaking my next most viewed video is 4k.

I don't post enough on social media to have anything go viral.

I had a few Reddit posts made the front page of the subreddit it was in, and I figured it was roughly 30K views based on the IMGUR pictures.

And last night I had a tweet get over 11K RTs and viewed well over a million times and counting

Plus dogs go viral just about every day so you got that going as well.

A member on here posted a video of his maybe two year-old son crying when he broke the news that Michael Young was going to be traded from Texas. Not much later, it became viral enough where Young caught wind of it and visited his family, debunking the rumors and making the kid a fan for life.

I'll have to sit and think if I got anything popular enough that, say, it came back to me. I've begun to concoct something that I think could become wildly popular on YT, or it could just fall in the camp with other fanmade items that never see the light of day. At least I can assure that no one else has done it yet.

EDIT: Here is the thread. Turns out it was his nephew, and he was 3 years old. Video isn't up anymore though. Still awesome.

Not exactly viral, but I've had tweets in the past make it on TV on a popular major network show. Like twitter handle and everything appearing on screen too. Hosts of the show basically made fun of it, and created a new rule(only twitter handles that have actual names in it are allowed) for their show because of me lol.

I also once created a FAQ on gamefaqs, got huge amount of hits on it cause I was really the only one bothering to do one for the game. Eventually lead to me being the "go to person" on the internet to do player edits and caps and stuff for people, which indirectly lead to me ending up on this site.

I was gonna make a "I've never gone viral but I have gotten crabs" joke post, but I couldn't word it in a clever enough way. Can we pretend I did? Just imagine this post was a hilarious joke

I had a tweet that was retweeted by College Gameday, and ended up with 75 RTs and about 300 favorites (before likes). 30 or so people followed me and about 10 still do.
