I was gonna say the same.

I was in Williams-Brice stadium when we were playing clemson and you could hear the murmurs about the kick six. Then they showed it on the video board during a TV timeout.


I watched it happen live on TV at a tailgate spot I walked by on my way in to Willy B, couldn't believe what I saw

Even as an Ag, I’ve gotta go with the tx-usc rose bowl. What a game!

The first thing that came to mind (besides kick six) Bama game winning play in OT to beat Georgia for the natty in 2017. I was stunned. Disappointed in the Dawgs for sure.

All sports.. probably gimpy Gibson’s HR in the World Series.

CFB… Miami stopping UNL when Osborne went for the win.

At the time, watching the home run race between McGwire and Sosa was pretty amazing.

The Miracle on Ice, the Dream Team, Kerri Strug landing with only one good foot, the Bills coming back to beat the Oilers in the playoffs, Kirk Gibson's pinch hit HR...

Also the World Series Earthquake, and sadly the Dale Earnhardt crash.

Can't stand tOSU or Miami, (the way they were back then) but the 2003 Fiesta Bowl was one helluva game. Must see tv at it's finest...until the 2005-6 Rose Bowl of course.

Johnny 8 ball running all around in Tuscaloosa like street ball beating the tide was pretty magnificent.

Keeping it within the SEC, the first two that popped into my head were:

LSU beating Kentucky and UK coach getting the Gatorade bath at the same time.

The Hog game when the QB fell down and fumbled the ball.

Blue Grass Miracle was pretty insane.

Clint Sterner fumbling vs Tenn in the rain was a "oh no" moment for Ark. They had the game in hand and snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

Damn I'm getting old.

I remember every one of these, mentioned in this thread .... plus so many more, as a grown man watching them.

Some others not yet mentioned:

The Immaculate Reception
Joe Willie leading the Jets to the title in SB III.
Kirk Gibson's pinch hit gimpy HR in the '88 World Series
Joe Theisman's leg snapping by Harry Carson and Lawrence Taylor and Taylor screaming for medical help from the sidelines.

.... but my earlier biggest memories had to be Dad taking me to The Masters in '65 and seeing Jack win in record fashion.

The next year the NFC and AFC merged and the year after that was the first Super Bowl. We watched it on a little TV with rabbit ears inside our Airstream sitting on Manatee Bay in Florida on family vacation.

I had to pick my son up from a birthday party and when I got there the Dads who were also picking up were in the den watching the game. Well it was pouring raining and I didnt want to delay any longer so I got my kid and left and listened to the end of it on some station out of Biloxi.

Lots of good stuff here.

It was not a moment but I will never forget the Steve Bartman inning.

Also, the 4th quarter of Falcons/Patriots.
