    If you had the chance..
    If you had the chance to see one sporting event live from the past, what would it be? Kirk Gibson bottom of the 9th home run shot? Joe Montana 4th quarter drive? Believe it or not, for me, I would have like to been there to see Sea Biscuit beat War Admiral.

            It would be the 1960 Kentucky Derby. My grandfather's horse won the derby. Horse racing was a huge part of my family long before I was born. Sucked I couldn't of been a part of that. I was born in 73 so I was to late.

                      Excellent choice. Maybe for me, if it was just one single game, I might choose the 1933 All-Star Game, the first one with 16 eventual Hall of Famers that played in the game and several more that never even got into action, plus three Hall of Famers serving as managers/coaches.

                      A few more single games that would be nice to witness first hand:
                      • Oct 3, 1951, Bobby Thomson's Shot Heard 'Round the World
                      • Oct 13, 1960, Bill Mazeroski, 'nuff said
                      • Oct 8, 1956, Don Larson's perfect game
                      • Oct 21, 1975, Carlton Fisk's shot to end Game 6
                      • Sep 23, 1908, Merkle's Boner
                      • Apr 15, 1947, Jackie Robinson's debut
                      • Jul 16, 1941, Joe DiMaggio extends hitting streak to 56 games
                      • Sep 28, 1941, Ted Williams goes 6-for-8 in a double header to finish the season with a .406 average

                          The 85 Super Bowl (49ers-Dolphins). I would bring a butterfly with me too in the hope that if it flaps its wings the right way the entire world would be different and the Dolphins would win the game.

                                                        soccer beats any other sport for me Panic.

                                                        But that would be a good option, no doubt.

                                                          Only big time prize fight I saw was Larry Holmes against Tex Cobb, and the only thing that made that big was How-ard Co-sell never broadcast another heavyweight fight after that if my memory is correct. I was not impressed, give me the Golden Glove kids any day of the week.

                                                            WillieBee, had I not seen it with my own 2 eyes, I would actually have a boxing match as one of my top 5 events to see. And that would be Micky Ward v. Arturo Gatti. Did anyone here see the war these guys had? It still ranks in my top 5....no, in my top 3 of one of the best competitive matches ever in boxing. And their rematch was just as impressive.
