Game one 2015 World Series. Longest WS game in history. Our seats were “SRO” standing room only, and endured a 2 hour chilly rain delay before first pitch of that marathon. KC won the game and the series in 5 games. I was whooped. Few years later the record would be outdone and I don’t envy anyone who attended it.

The Demetrius Byrd game winning catch vs aurburn, and the fake field goal vs South Carolina. Both in 2007 I believe

1. Kris Jenkins in 2016
2. LSU-Clemson 2019

Number 1 is easy and I had no rooting interest in the game.

1992 Houston Oilers at Denver Broncos playoff game, Warren Moon vs John Elway. Elway had to go 98 yards with 2 minutes left and converted two 4th down conversions to win the game. Mile High Stadium was shaking so hard that my wife had an anxiety attack. Hell of a memory.

Houston had some damn done ball clubs back in that day. It's a shame they never won one.

I have been to all of the Gators NC winning games. Almost 40 years of Gator home games so have seen, Tebow jump pass, cock-block game, Swindle in the swamp(that changed college football forever), so many last minute wins over the Vols.

Speaking of Florida, definitely a top 5 sporting event for me was the 2001 UF/AU football game when unranked Auburn knocked off Spurrier's number 1 Gators.

People talk about JHS and it being a tough place to play and that game exemplifies it. Just a weird last 7 or 8 minutes woth Auburn turning the ball over twice within a couple minutes of gametime. Then Grossman throws one of the more inexplicable interceptikns I have ever seen with like 4 minutes to go when they just needed to run clock and kick a FG. Then Damon Duvall kicks a 45 harder right down main street to win it.

Great night at Jordan-Hare Stadium.

Helmet catch Super Bowl to end Patriots undefeated season.

Front row on 18 for Tigers 2012 Players Championship @ TPC Sawgrass

2016 Ryder Cup. The Rory v Pat Reed duel. Still the best sporting event I’ve ever been to. Sergio was walking off 16 or 17 and tossed his ball into the crowd. My buddy caught it and immediately airmailed it back across the green into the water. Crowd went nuts Ryder Cups are a bit different

It's funny... All three "Games of the Century" in the 20th century came within a six year period...

Notre Dame-Mich. State... 1966
Texas- Arkansas... 1969
Nebraska-Oklahoma... 1971

Drew Brees setting the all time NFL TD pass record.

LSU-Clemson 2019

Random one but LSU-South Carolina 2015 was Spurrier’s final game he ever coached. That’s a big one in CFB history.

Oct 24, 1971 - As a six year old, watched defending Super Bowl Champion Dallas Cowboys beat the New England Patriots 44-21 in first NFL game ever at Texas Stadium.

Sep 28, 1985 - Watched Tennessee Vols upset #1 Auburn and knocked Bo Jackson out of the game at Neyland Stadium.

Oct 27, 2002 - Took my kids to witness Emmitt Smith break the NFL rushing record against the Seattle Seahawks in Texas Stadium.
