Today, we remember a legend.
On this day in history, Harambe would have celebrated another birthday. An icon that became part of internet history, American culture, and an entire generation’s timeline.
Tomorrow marks 10 years since we lost him. Ten years since the moment the world stopped scrolling and collectively mourned something bigger than a meme.
He became a symbol of loyalty, strength, chaos, unity, and the strange beauty of the internet bringing millions of people together for one cause: never forgetting Harambe.
Everyone remembers where they were when they heard the news. And somehow, a decade later, his legacy still lives on.
Gone, but never forgotten.
Rest easy to a true patriot. 🕊️🇺🇸

Forever in our hearts.
Mikko is clearly injured. We are without Seguin and Roope. Lost Hyry our faceoff king last night. Tyler Myers is on my fucking team. We haven’t scored a 5 on 5 goal in 200 minutes. Even if we did win this series, how the fuck do we expect to beat the well rested Avs like this?
My own break 100 90 80 around the green 🧵
Break 100
-Use putter whenever possible. 56 degree if not.
-For the bump and run with 56
Feet together. Feet about 1ft from the ball.
Hands ahead of the ball and feel like it’s the body doing all the work. No hands no wrist.
-Don’t worry about getting it super close. Focus on good contact. (For good contact hands have to stay ahead and head to stay tall)

Darren Woo is a 56-year-old firefighter. He works full-time for the Savannah River Site Fire Department and also volunteers for Columbia County. He's been a caddie at Champions Retreat, about 20 minutes from Augusta National, for six years. He's also a father to five boys.
Two weeks ago, Woo looped for three @RazorbackWGolf players during a practice round at Champions – one of them was Maria Jose Marin. When Marin asked Woo if he'd caddie for her at @anwagolf, Woo jumped at the chance. Behind the scenes, Marin's father, Jose, was giving up the bag, telling his daughter, “I love you with all my heart, but you need someone that knows how to handle a tournament of this level.”
Woo had zero experience at Augusta National, though his calming presence and positivity earned him the loop for Saturday's final round. Arkansas coach Shauna Estes-Taylor said Woo's southern accent was so calming, that one could "meditate to it."
Throughout the final day, Woo encouraged Marin with things such as:
Be confident.
You’re going to work it out.
Give yourself a chance.
Keep your head up.
Breathe.
"He was my greatest support during the whole week and a key to the victory," Marin said.
Woo revealed after Marin's win that he worked a 14-hour shift that ended at 7 a.m. Saturday, less than four hours before Marin's tee time. He also shared that he not only has one granddaughter but he has two more grandchildren on the way.
“Maybe I’ll be lucky enough and have three granddaughters," Woo said, "and they can all grow up to be like Maria.”
🚨🐅🇺🇸 #WATCH — Tiger Woods called President Trump from the scene of his rollover crash. The officer asked him to remain close by and Tiger replied: “Yeah, I was just talking with the President.”
