If you weren"t at the men"s beach volleyball gold medal match in Rio on Thursday, then you missed out on the biggest party in the world. While the main event was on the sand between Brazil and Italy, the Brazilian crowd cheering on the home team was beyond incredible.

The fans came out in full force for the match and not even rain could damper their enthusiasm. The result was one of the best sports environments we"ll see all year.

Here are some of the best photos from an unforgettable night for the Brazil crowd.
