Was thinking about stuff I've lived through (I'm old)

1.Kennedy assassination
2.9/11
3.Man on the moon
4.Reagan election
5.Fall of Baghdad
6.Nixon resigns
7.Clinton impeachment
8.Fall of Saigon
9.Braves win the Series

Sure I'm forgetting some. But this has gotta be in the top 10.
So what's your list? (Bama fans can only list a Natty once)

1. BR area Flood '16
2. 9/11

By miles before any sporting events or elections.

But Trump beating Clinton was just behind Bush beating Gore in 2000 when talking elections only.
