In an exclusive interview he told Rangers TV: "It was absolutely astonishing. When we were up there after the final whistle and I saw grown men cry, there were tears rolling down the faces of every single board member.
"The reaction of the fans just showed how happy they were and it was a really joyous occasion.”
King reckons the level of performance Rangers delivered proves they can challenge Celtic for the Premiership title next season.
The Chairman continued:
"The fact we actually outplayed them as well was fantastic, given we essentially built a Championship team to win the Championship and we are going to build further on it for next season.”
Rangers will meet Hibs in the final of the Scottish Cup at Hampden on the 21st of May.
