Mine was pretty recent and blows everything I have ever seen to smithereens. Thnking about being there still gives me goosebumps.

I would have been at the Super Bowl that year, had the Vikings won. :|

Ha, I was there too.

That was the quitest I've heard the Metrodome after a game.

I saw every Italian game except the finals at World Cup '94. Giants stadium was ridiculous for the semi-final against Bulguria.

Haven't been to many sporting events, but probably the most significant was George Brett's last home game before retirement in KC.

My daughter's softball championship game this year. I coached, she kicked ass, and we won both the season championship and tournament.

Do the the Kentucky Derby and a middle weight championship fight count as a great sporting event?

nameless destruction derby in Florida

on a more serious note....the common wealth games at manchester, only went to the swimming events which rocked

 

[isasir]

Nothing too huge, but two significant games for me were:

1. The first Mets home game after 9/11.
2. The Mets/Yankees game where Roger Clemens was pitching, after the media hyped up the whole Clemens/Piazza situation.

Ok that's more "sports entertainment" but it as the biggest thing I went to.

My biggest event was Wrestlemania X-7 in Houson. Earlier that year, I went to the Royal Rumble in New Orleans.
