Headlines, hits, and more from the last time Tottenham finished ahead of Arsenal

For the better part of the second half of the 2015-16 Premier League season, it appeared as if Arsenal supporters wouldn't be celebrating St. Totteringham's this year.

That script was flipped Sunday during the English top flight's final day when Arsenal topped Aston Villa while Tottenham was up north getting dominated by a Newcastle side that had little to play for besides pride.

For 20 consecutive years, Arsenal supporters have observed the annual fete after a league match when north London rival Tottenham can no longer mathematically finish ahead of the Gunners in the table.

The last time Tottenham finished above Arsenal in the table was the 1994-95 season, when Spurs came seventh to the Gunners' 12th. Here's how the world looked when Arsenal last looked up the table at its hated rival:
