Basketball: Pettway's layup as time expired against Florida in '02. Stormed the court. It was such an intense game and couldn't have ended any better! It was a party after that bucket.

Football: Rocky Block. I was there with my dad who never attends games. I think his vertical could have challenged Vince Carter that day. I'll never forget it. The joy and excitement that painted everyone's face was just awesome.

The Upchurch touchdown in the 2009 Iron Bowl is tops for me.

Softball: The 2012 rain game was just magical, Tide rolls the Sooners.

Langham's pick 6 against UF in the '92 SECCG at Legion Field. Prior to the play I had this inescapable feeling Matthews was going to lead them down the field for a TD, and then...Langham steps in front. It was like magic.

Macarron to Yeldon in 2012 / Sims last minute drive in 2014. Both in Tiger Stadium! They're still crying over those 2 wins!

Football:

1.Ingram scoring the TD against Texas in the Rose Bowl following the Anders sack.

2. Eddie Lacy TD run on the first drive against ND. Game could not have started out better.

3. Amari Cooper's TD catch against Georgia

4. Jay Barker's play vs Georgia in '94. Outside of the Iron Bowl in 2010, LSU 2012, and Florida in '05, this was the loudest game at BDS.

5. Tennessee in '05 when Roman Harper forced a fumble that went out of the end zone. Also one of the loudest games at BDS.

Basketball:

1. Anthony Brock buzzer beater vs Tennessee
2. Alabama vs Georgia back in 2011 I think when Alabama finished the season undefeated at Coleman.
3. Alabama vs UCLA in 2005. Even though we lost, it was my first time to California and the first time I have ever seen a tournament. Crowd sucked of course, but it was fun nonetheless.

The 08 beatdown of Clemson was special too because I really wasn't expecting it and it got everything rolling.

1993 UT at legion field. Sold programs that day w some friends so we had the ramp seats. We had all given up and were waiting outside for our ride when I heard over the PA system "pass complete to Taurus Turner" . I went back in by myself to watch David Palmer make an amazing midair sideways catch. My friends soon came storming back in and we watched that stadium erupt as Palmer took the ball around the end to tie it up.
Always wondered what would have happened had overtime been around back then.

Let's see.......

2011 Iron Bowl. Was my first Iron Bowl ever, and on my 19th Birthday no less.
2012 Michigan game. Jerryworld was cool and was a great statement win. Showed that Bama is still the best team in the nation.
2012 NCG. 21-0.
2012 Rally in Death Valley
2012 SECCG.
2013 NCG.
2013 Texas A&M. Was able to shut Aggy and JFF up, (even though I almost passed out). You try wearing a full wool suit and jacket in 100 degree weather.

2013 UK. It was a fun trip to Lexington
2013 LSU was pretty meh if we're being honest.
I don't recall the rest of 2013.

2014 UF was fun.
2014 Arky was nerve-racking, but an intense game. Was fun to watch in person, now that it's over.
2014 UT was fun. Third down for what is now my least favorite song.
2014 LSU was amazing. Their fans didn't boo us as much as last time, but they were still shitty. The first 59 minutes were boring, but that final drive was intense, and rewarding. When Reuben Foster laid out LF, the whole stadium went quiet, except for the Bama fans of course. I'm talking about absolute silence. Was surreal.OT was amazing. I swear there's nothing better than playing Rammer Jammer to a full Tiger Stadium. And on their senior night too. That's when I knew this team was for real.

2014 Msu was one of the best games I've ever attended in BDS. The loudest I've ever heard it too.

2014 Auburn. After witnessing kick-6 in person, I was waiting for this game for a loooooong time. Had plenty of drama, and the sweet feeling of revenge was the perfect way to end my 4 years in the MDB.

2014 SECCG was meh.
Believe it or not the beginning of the Sugar Bowl was great too. The hype, playing a big name school, it was all so electrifying.

I've been fortunate to be at many great moments like the 93 Sugar Bowl, 2009 UT & AU, 2009 Texas, etc.

My favorite moment has to be the end of the 2013 BCS Title game against Notre Dame. There was not a "memorable" play in that game and in terms of epic moments, it doesn't compare to some of the other title games or nail biter regular season games. However, that was my favorite moment as a Bama fan. To me, it just doesn't get any better than destroying Notre Dame to win back-to-back titles. Standing in the stands and taking in that moment was probably the pinnacle of my fanhood. Knowing that my team is the unquestioned king of the sport and we did it over a team that has been our rival for that spot. IMO, it will never be topped.

On that same note, it was pretty cool to join in on the "We're #1 chant" after Lassic's TD in the Sugar Bowl in 1993. I was young so it was my first time seeing UA win a title but it was so cool to hear the entire Superdome chant that while the cocky Miami players just stood there and took it.

Other than countless football games, I would like to add a moment from last baseball season. First SEC series of the year, game 3 against Kentucky. We had split the first two. I think it had rained and there weren't many people at the game with the exception of the right field section. Down 3-1 in the ninth, I believe with two outs, and Austen Smith slams a two-run homer to tie it. Then in the tenth, Mikey White slapped one over the wall. The lackluster crowd was a bummer, but the ones that were there went crazy, and for a while I thought that team had a lot of potential. I had a lot of fun that day, and I hope our baseball team can become a power so we can have more moments like that.

I have three favorites for football:
1. Beating UT for the crystal following the 2009 season; this one is special to me because it was against a team Bama had never beaten.
2. Beating ND for the crystal following the 2012 season; beating ND is ALWAYS special.
3. The Kick in 1985; Van Tiffin is true from 52 to beat Auburn.

For basketball, it was watching Bama win the 1994 Otis Spunkmeyer Classic by beating 14th ranked Cal in their backyard (Oakland, CA).
