What was the most epic moment of the Super Bowl?

Malcom Butler's game-deciding interception? What about Russel Wilson's touchdown pass to push Seattle into the lead in the third quarter? Or was it simply that moment when the clock finally hit zero and the Patriots knew for sure they were going to Disneyland?

Facebook and Twitter users seemed to love all of these, but which was the most talked-about? Depends on which site you were using.
