This can be radio or TV...

I'm partial to several Larry Munson calls and also to Vin Scully's call of Kirk Gibson's walk-off HR in the 1988 World Series... What ya got?

Obviously.

For me PERSONALLY, its Jim Henderson's call of the Garret Hartley kick in the NFCCG.

There wont be. His call of the 84 Auburn game brings tears to my eyes. Look at the Sugar falling from the sky!

Bobby Thompson's Walk Off (The shot heard round the world) is the greatest. /thread kind of stuff.

My second favorite though is Jack Buck's call on Kirby Puckett's walk off in Game 6 of the '91 series.
"And we'll see you tomorrow night!"

The gold standard is The Shot Heard 'Round the World, aka "The Giants Win the Pennant"

"...another 0-2 pitch. High in the air. Well hit to right field. Carter to the wall...grand slam Lonnie Smith! On an 0-2 pitch! He gave him something to drive and he drove it."

Andres Cantor

I don't even understand what he is saying, and I am not the biggest soccer fan. However, that is a great call.

I would agree with both of these. When I saw the thread title, I immediately thought of the Miracle on Ice call: LINK

'The shot heard 'round the world' is #1 in my book

Everyone associates Al Michaels with "Do you believe in miracles", but his call of the Hagler Hearns fight is really underrated.
"its Hagler full of blood!"

I really like Chic Anderson during the 1973 Belmont Stakes when Secretariat won the Triple Crown and blew the field away and set the track record by more than 2 seconds (which is still a record today).
