I was there for the earthquake game in the student section same end zone...

This one is terrible but I was there and saw when that fan fell at Rangers ballpark and died...didn't seem that serious at the time...found out he died on the ride home after the game.

1997, U.S. Open at Bethesda. Pop took my brothers and I there. The crowd suddenly erupted in to a "GREAT TASTE!" with a response of "LESS FILLING".

SOOOOOO many bourbon & cokes flying through the air.

My girlfriend at the time got hit in the head with a Jim Beam pint bottle and got KTFO. Spent several hours in the ER instead of out celebrating.

Game of the Century in 2011.

The Vatican on a Sunday, got blessed by the pope. Cool even though I'm not Catholic.

Not really sure if this is worthy but went to Vegas and watched the opener between UNC and Kentucky this past year.

The Emerald Cup last year, got to meet Jorge Cervantes.

I know there's more, I'm just too stupid to remember. I did, however, get to go on stage at a cirque de soleil show in Knoxville several years ago. It was awesome.

Oh, the Pro Bowl they had in Phoenix, got to see a bunch of players and the tailgating was a good time.

Feb 18th is my birthday. It's a yearly reminder of a sad sort.

When he hit the wall I was thinking they need to check on Dale, forget the winner!

It seemed like it took them forever to get to him. You could tell it was bad but losing him was brutal.

Pete Rose's 44 game hitting streak I was at the game in Atlanta in 1978 when Pete Rose's 44 game hitting streak came to and end. Longest streak in NL history.

95 World Series game six. Probably one of the best memories of my childhood. Went to the game with my grandfather.

I too was at the 3 OT LSU loss. Yalls fans were trashy to my SO afterwards.

Just saying.

There were still a lot of people mad about the BG Miracle, no way anyone else in America loses that game but us.

I just stood in the stands going "will never see this again in my lifetime".

I WAS THERE, TOO. Probably the highlight of my childhood. I was 11 and didn't totally grasp the significance of it, but I still knew it was a huge deal.

I was like 3 rows up from the Michigan Bench during the Chris Webber phantom timeout game.

I saw the whole thing happen right by me as a kid live.

I was witness to the Music City Miracle and , no , i was not one of 50,000 people to leave before attempting to run back in the stadium after hearing the remaining 10,000 or so fans erupt when the Titans scored. It looked as if the bridge had caught on fire that day with all the people running back to the coliseum. It was a good day in Nashville. Maybe the last god day the Titans have given Nashville.
