I was bored so I decided to take my own suggestion and do a top 10 Longshot moments thing. Except it turned into a top 15; I couldn't narrow it down any further. And yes, they're all Billie/Kevin moments. You have no idea how hard this was (avoiding the obvious joke...).
In chronological order, my top 15 fangirlicious Longshot Billie/Kevin moments (14 videos, 1 picture).

I could do dozens of runners up, but am going to restrain myself to this one Portland picture.
I fully admit it's one of my top favourite moments to this day. But I'll always remember when Andres used to post the most random and weird emails that GDA gets there was this one where this girl felt the need to write just to say when she watches that scene and Billie says "do you like that bitch?" she says to the screen "yes sir!" . Still cracks me up
Bite your tongue. We all know they're vacationing together in the Maldives. Those pics that they're posting from California? All a cover, taken weeks ago.
I think the Montreal show was one of my favorites to watch. In particular, it shows how much better behaved the crowd was than at some of the other shows. If you watch the entirety of CAG, it was people getting onstage, quick hug, then going right back into the crowd. That's how I think it should be.
Here are more pics of them wearing the boxing gear:
I love how they're trying to look all tough and shit, and then there's Billie on the end looking like a tiny goofball.
Also, can't forget Sexy Nurse Billie.
And Superhero Billie.
And Billie trying to be tall.
And, of course, King Billie.
That picture of Kevin and Billie? <fans self> Is it hot in here or is it just me?
The boxing gear photos remind me of the moment in BIAB where Billie starts boxing the camera to the Rocky theme and ends it by thrusting at the camera. Gotta admit, that was one of my top favorite moments as a teen.
I never took the time to watch any video from the Montreal concert and also because I was scared to see myself in the crowd... and I just saw myself in this one! ARK!!!!
Anyway, great top 15. And the only picture you chose, I agree with you 100%. This one is so beautiful. Kevin and Billie look like the perfect couple even if we know they're not actually together.
I know, I was saying that this should be nominated for best Longshot era picture. That'd actually be a fun thing to do, top 10 Longshot pictures. Of course, they'd all be of Billie and Kevin making out.
When you unexpectedly leave home and instead of taking the essentials (clothes, money, food, etc), you take your Green Day merch with you. Dumb move, I know, but I just couldn't bear to be without my boys.
