I was at a bus stop, in my college town. I was watching Twitter, because the press conference had been called but nobody knew for sure what it was. I started seeing tweets that the announcement was going to be about bin Laden being killed, then, all at once, I heard cheering coming from apartment windows all up and down the street. Totally surreal.

I might've had a different experience than many folks older (or younger) than I, though -- I was 10 when the attacks happened, and for a lot of the kids my age, OBL was the first real-life boogieman we knew. Then, just as we became old enough to really get immersed in current events, he was killed.
