    I would say mine has to be attending the game Ripken got his 3,000th hit. Will never forget it. He had 3 hits that game and got a nice liner up the middle to seal the deal.

        bronxer didnt carl everett break that one up? what a prick that guy was lol

        unc beating duke in dean dome in 2005 before they won the title...down 9 with 3 minutes left and came back and won....thought place was going to crumble from the noise the crowd was making

        second is davidson beating g'town in the 2nd round of the tourney after being down by like 17...steph curry put on the best performance i'd ever seen

        need to get to a final four soon

          second place (by a long shot) for me has to be Buehrle's 6 (or 5 and some change) perfect innings after he threw a perfect game against tampa a few years ago

            Mickey Morandini's unassisted triple play against the Buccos back in the early 90s, was 11, 12 and got his autograph after the game.

                No single "monumental" game. Many playoff games in all sports.... Most memorable was a home playoff game in Buffalo (where I grew up) against Oakland way back when. Not sure of the year but it was like -10 degrees wind chill and snowing heavily. I was not older than 8

                    Last years Super Bowl. I actually hate both teams (Cowboy fan), but it was an awesome event. Got the opportunity to watch this game from the Anheuser-Busch suite on the 45 yard line right off of the field. Great experience that I'll never forget.

                                      -Last year college football.....South Carolina Gamecocks lay the smackdown on #1 Alabama at Williams-Brice Stadium

                                      -A few Yankees World Series and playoffs games throughout the years.....none clinching though

                                      -Jets clinching the AFC East in 2002 in week 17.....if they lost they would have missed the playoffs altogether

                                                  97 NBA Finals Bulls/ Jazz Game 4

                                                  Utah tied the series at 2 and the fullcourt pass from stockton to malone in the last minute blew up the Delta Center. I am a big Jazz fan and have gone to a bunch of games and I still think this moment was the loudest it ever got. It was definitely my pinnacle moment as a Jazz fan.

                                                    I was at the 2002 winter olympics in salt lake city.

                                                    I was at the 2009 NBA finals. One game in Orlando and one in LA.

                                                    I am going to the first night game in Notre Dame history this year vs. USC. @ Notre Dame!

                                                    I have never been but really want to go to a World Cup game. My goal is to plan a trip to Brazil in 2014 for the next world cup. Hopefully I can get some tickets in the lotto.

                                                      Was the day I moved out of college for the summer and found out the day before I had $1900 in my school account...figured why not give the casino a whirl? Got tickets at gate for $38.50 plus fees. I'll never see anything greater in my life.

                                                        Panthers vs Buccaneers Monday night football December 2008 in Carolina.... the place was ******* rocking it was like 25 degrees and we had been tailgating for 5 hours... DRUNK AS **** and Panthers kick the **** out of the Buccaneers on national tv .. it pretty much led to Jon Gruden being fired.

                                                        Also June 10th 2005 Yankees vs Cardinals at old Busch Stadium. My buddy and I had access to the VIP lounge at the Westin right accross from the stadium before the game got tanked smoke some J's and hit up the Cards vs Yanks game....

                                                        I kept telling people I was going to run out of the field and tackle Albert Pujols ... unbelievable the reactions i was getting you could tell how much Cardinals fans love their Pujols

                                                              Done the World Series and a couple other really cool games, but the best by far was the 2001 GMAC Bowl Marshall vs. East Carolina down in Alabama. I had just got out of boot camp and was in Pensacola for like a week when they gave us free tickets to the game and a bus ride up there. Marshall was down 38-8 at halftime and was led back by Byron Leftwich to beat David Garrard 64-61 in double overtime! We didnt even get to watch the first half because we were in uniform (just after 9-11) and when we went to get a beer, people came up to us to shake our hands and buy us more beer. No shit between the 6 of us, people just kept walking up to us with a total of about 2 1/2 cases. It was at a stadium not much different from the one at my high school so when we were watching it was from practically on the sideline!
