Remind me to give you some Positive Rep for this post when I can tomorrow.

I think this may be one of my favorite posts ever.

First USFL championship game in Denver, where the Michigan Panthers beat the Carl Peterson-led Philadelphia Stars, 24-22.

Was at the 2005 Masters.

Also was at Over the Edge '98 when Owen Hart got killed at Kemper...not a championship but memorable nonetheless.

Geebus tits; you really are an old bastard! I would guess that 75% of this board wasn't even born in 58! How old were you then?

I was in the roller skating nationals in 1986. Does that count?

I was at game 1 of the '88 World Series when Kirk Gibson hit a 2 run homer in the bottom of the ninth to beat the A's in LA.

I was at the 2004 Super Bowl in Houston when the Patriots defeated the Panthers 32–29, as Adam Vinatieri kicked a 41-yard field goal with four seconds left.

Been lucky not only to go to these, but see two great games.

1994 Orange Bowl, Nebraska v. Florida State, got 4 tix for free from USO; was New Year's Day, nobody else could go, so I went & scalped the other 3 tix for $100 each.

I still thhink Nebraska was the better team.

I've never attended one, but it's worked out that I lived in quite a few cities involved in major sporting events. I lived in Buffalo three of the years the Bills went to the Super Bowl. I lived in Washington DC the year they went to the Stanley Cup Finals against Detroit. I lived in Houston when the Super Bowl, MLB All Star game, World Series and two NLCS's were played there.
I just never went. Too much money in my opinion. The only one I really wish I'd gone to was the Stanley Cup Finals, but I'm a Sabres fan and the Caps had just beat the Sabres in the Eastern Conference finals so I was feeling a lot of hatred toward the Caps. The kind of sports hate only hockey can produce for me.
