When the Saints beat the Rams to earn their 1st ever playoff win. They had a backup QB, backup RB, and also lost WR1 Joe Horn early in that game.

for CFB: Pretty easy. The GMAC Bowl between Marshall and East Carolina where Marshall rallied from a 30 point halftime deficit and won in double overtime. The next day in the paper, the writer also mentioned that it was a game after playing East Carolina when the Marshall plane crash happened back in the early 70's. I forgot how he looped it into the article but it gave me goosebumps when I realized it.

If you get a chance, go to a USMNT match preferably a qualifier.

I haven't been to a qualifier, but I've been to 2 Gold Cups and 1 MLS match and all 3 were great.

2005 ALDS game 4, Braves @ Astros. 18 innings, battled back for Chris Burke to walk it off for a Roger Clemens win.

Idk if I made the right choice for most fun. I was a nervous wreck that whole game. But the elation from winning has never been matched, only the Dodgers winning the penant last year has come close

I haven't gone to anything that was more fun than a NHL playoff game (2012 Nashville/Detroit game 2).

2003 Georgia game

3 years ago local high school played for state basketball championship against former Kentucky player Malik Monk. Suppose to get killed, had to sneak in even though had tickets cause fire marshall locked the doors. Won the game and watching my youngest and his buddy was priceless. That was awesome and I guess makes me old lol.

Texas A&M vs. Nebraska 2010.

9-6 defensive struggle (my favorite kind of game). Last game as a student.

Got to rush the field after and randomly ran into my little brother (who was a walk on that year). Got to sing the Aggue War Hymn on Kyle Field facing the student section.....

Yeah, I cried. DGAF. Awesome night.

I've seen some amazing games growing up a LSU fan. The loss against USC in 79. The fog game against Fla. St. The win in the Dome in 81 against Wichita St. for the final four berth. The last second pass in 07 against Auburn. But my favorites is my granddaughters foul shots against a much better Peabody H.S. squad to seal a home win and upset. And her brothers td catch against arch rival DeRidder at DeRidder to win the Hooper and break a losing streak to them.

Saints Panthers wild card game last season.

The dome was electric man. I wish the falcons would have beaten the eagles and i wish Marcus Williams doesnt derp all for himself on the final play. I can't imagine what the dome would have been like for the nfc championship game against your hated rival.

2009 Auburn vs West Virginia, "The Rain Game"

LINK

Half this highlight video is from before the game even started. Already had the time of my life before kickoff and the game was exciting too on top of it.

LSU and Florida 2007. Arguably the best football game I've seen and to be there in person was awesome. Both of those teams were loaded.

2007 LSU vs Florida - literally could not hear anyone around me or myself think for that matter for a large portion of the game. The sustained sound when they announced USC lost and LSU started the comeback against Tebow was insane. There was a feeling at the game that this would be the one we talk about for years, decades even to come. That was correct.

2009 NFC Championship Saints vs Vikings - There are no words to do this justice. Just an incredible game, surreal atmosphere, and the ending...just wow. I had never, never in my life felt the energy and elation when Tracy Porter picked Favre and then when Hartley drilled the game winner. Never thought I’d see the day the Saints made it to the Super Bowl. Cherry on top was going out in an absolutely unreal NOLA that night afterwards. In some ways this was more memorable than actually winning the Super Bowl.
