  • For hot women: 2000 NCAA Track & Field Championship at Duke Univ. I was still living in the area and attended all 4 days. I've never seen so many 9-10s in a central location at once in my life. Tried to holla at 200m dash champion Peta Gaye-Dowdie of LSU. She was polite but my advances were thwarted. Her posterior chain had my mouth watering. Her face was/is pretty too.

    Excitement:
    1994 Duke vs UNC basketball at Cameron. Grant Hill, Jerry Stackhouse, Rasheed Wallace. Probably 8-9 future 1st rounders were in the game.
    2009 Iron Bowl
    2009 SEC Championship
    2009 BCS Champinship (took place in Jan 2010)
    2012 Cowboys Classic. Game was over at the end of the 1st quarter....but I enjoyed the stadium.

    Jabrill Peppers...More I watch, the more I'm convinced he is the best player in the 2014 class. Barring injury, he will do special things.

    Omaha is always awesome. Love that place.

    I've been to 7 of the last 8 first weekends of the CWS and its always a blast.

    Got to go to the worst Fiesta Bowl of all time UConn vs OU. Was still a good time though.

  • Giants at Packers 2007 NFC Championship game. Coldest I have ever been in my life. Unless you chugged your beer it would freeze before you could finish it.

    That Favre interception still pisses me off. I haven't been to a game at Lambeau yet. Its at the very top of my list of things to do.

  • Frankie Edgar vs Gray Maynard pt 2.. Was one of the best fights in the history of the UFC

    Oscar De Lahoya's first fight after he returned from retirement against Vargas.. Oscar KO'd him in the 7th rd I believe.. Was in Vegas and Stalone was 1 row in front of me.

    LSU vs UF in 07 when Hester converted 4 first downs on 4th down runs.. They announced USC losing during the game that meant of we won, we were going to the MNC game and it got louder after that announcement than any game i've been to in my life.. Absolutely insane amount of noise that lasted the rest of the game.

    I was at the National title game for Basketball.. Butler against Uconn.. One of the worst title games EVER.. was so mad.

    I also went to the Superbowl in Miami.. Indy vs Chicago and it started pouring down rain during the game.. So that kind of sucked too but not many people can say they've been to the Superbowl

    I went to the LSU vs Oregon game in Cowboys stadium and man, that was incredible.. It got crazy loud inside when the Honey Badger was tearing Oregon a new one.

    I saw a Red Sox vs Yankee game in the old Yankee stadium.. David Cone pitched that game and I got an autographed baseball from the entire Yankee team at that game.

  • I was at that Bulls Cavs game when Michael Jordan hit that last second shot and pumps his fist. It's on the gatorade commercials. It was game 7 in Richfield Coliseum in Cleveland. I remeber it going from every body going crazy to the quietest 20,000 people I have ever been around. I don't think anybody said a word until we got back to Columbus

  • Honestly I should have put this in OP but you can pretty much put any Bama/LSU from recent years on that list. I know we lost, but the '11 game in Bryant-Denny was like nothing else I've ever experienced. It was unbelievably intense from start to finish.

    The game in Baton Rouge this year is also up there. I think the Death Valley at night noise thing is slightly overplayed (nothing against LSU I just don't think it's any louder than a big game at BDS, Jordan-Hare, The Swamp etc). Having said that, I'm not sure i've ever heard a stadium erupt than when Landry caught the TD pass to give them the lead. I've also never heard a road crowd get as loud as we were when Yeldon scored the game-winning TD. Bama/LSU is at the epicenter of rivalries in all of sports right now IMHO.

  • I was at game 4 of the ALCS last season, when the Tigers completed a sweep of the Yankees in Detroit. I got a picture of the last pitch, and then I cried.

  • 96 Olympics...especially the opening ceremony, the women's gymnastics final, swimming events, and the track & field events
    1st 4 FSU National Championship games
    Atlanta Super Bowl
    1996 NBA All Star game (San Antonio)...Jordan, Pippen, Shaq, Ewing, Miller, Malone, Mourning, Payton, Barkley, ect.

    I attended some of the Braves/ Yankees World Series games (the ex is from NY) but baseball in not really my thing. I enjoyed looking around at the crowd more than the game.

  • I've been to two Kentucky Derbies...if you ever have the chance, please go. One of the years was when Giacomo won at 50:1, a buddy of mine had $50 on him.

    US Open tennis tourney is pretty fun too.

  • Arsenal vs Athletico and Rangers vs PSG at the Emirates in 09.

  • FSU vs VT National title game. VT obviously lost, but Vick & Warrick put on a fvcking show.

    Also, the Red River Shootout a couple years ago was amazing. A must see bucket list deal for a diehard CFB fan

    Wasn't a fan of the derby and thought the preakness was worse. Belmont is pretty cool though...

    Here's how it goes: Derby= Jerry Springer Show

    Preakness = Animal House meets the Ghetto

    Belmont = Bad renunion of The Sopranos wannabes
