A couple World Series games in the old Yankee Stadium, including one where Jeter hit a walk off HR in the 10th off Byung Yung Kim. It was awesome.

Otherwise, the 2003 BCS CG.

I've gotten to go to multiple national title games in football, and one in basketball. That's probably it for me. Went to the Olympics in Atlanta. Biggest golf tournament was a PGA Championship, also in Atlanta.

Partied in south beach for four days. By Sunday afternoon I completely forgot that there was football game on Monday.

Awesome weekend.

The Loma Prieta earthquake game of the 1989 World Series. I didn't get to attend the game since it was postponed, but I was there in the parking lot at Candlestick tailgating when the earthquake struck.


Damn. How old were you?

Bama/LSU game of the century
Bama/LSU NC game
LSU/ Oh. St. NC game
Superbowl 47 Blackout game
Saints/Vikings NFC champ game
Saints/Falcons Domecoming game
LSU/Florida 07
LSU/UGA 03

I would say even though I wasn't a fan of either team, the superbowl is without a doubt the most famous game.

BCS NCG, 2004, LSU vs. Oklahoma
ETA: BCS NCG, 2008, LSU vs. Ohio State
BCS NCG, 2012, LSU vs. Alabama
BCS NCG, 2000, Virginia Tech (led by Michael Vick) vs. Florida State

NFC CG, 2010, Saints vs. Vikings

2010 MLB Home Run Derby, Yankee Stadium (Josh Hamilton hit 29 HR in one plate session... broke the derby record... it was amazing in person)
2010 MLB All-Star Game, Yankee Stadium

LSU vs. WV/Texas, 2006, Sweet 16/Elite 8, Atlanta


Those are the best ones I can think of, not part of the LSU/Saints regular games. I've had LSU and Saints season tickets since 2000, so I haven't missed many games in BR/NO (especially big games).
