    What is the greatest game you have seen in person? 

    Mine would have to be the Nebraska vs Colorado 2008

    Alex Henery kicks game winning 57 yard fg with to make score 33-31. Less than a minute later Suh picks off Cody Hawkins and stiff arms him on his way into end zone with 52 seconds left.

    The Texans vs. Rams games a few years ago....it went to OT. Marc Bulger got hurt that game and Ryan Fitzpatrick came in and tore it up. If I remember correctly the Rams won it on the opening series on like an 80 yard screen play to Kevin Curtis. I wanted the Texans to win but it was a badass game for sure

     1995 - Thursday night football in Charlottesville, The 'Hoos end #2 FSU's 29 game ACC winning streak by stopping Warrick Dunn at the goal line on the game's final play.  Dunn took a direct snap at the UVa 6 yard line and was tackled inches from the goal line.

     The most electric atmosphere that I've ever been part of.

    2003 SuperCoppa Italiana at Giants Stadium between AC Milan and Juventus.

    Amazing soccer match. Milan was awarded a PK in the 106th minute to take a 1-0 lead, which was complete BS.  One minute later, Juventus equalized it.

    Juventus went on to win in PKs.

    Don't remember details, I was very young... UM @ ND and Michigan rallied back for a huge upset victory.

    My dad was nervous getting us out of the stadium alive because we were wearing maze n blue.

    04' Sox/Yankees game on Patriots day.  The Patriots day home game is a tradition in New England it starts before noon and the Boston marathon happens the same day so there's a decent amount of hype.  I stayed up all night to get standing room only seats at the ticket window with my boys and the Sox were down early 4-1 and scored runs in the last four innings to get the win 5-4

    When the Generals beat the Globetrotters in eight overtimes, 211-209 on a last second half-court heave that ricocheted off the scoreboard. Wait..........it was nine overtimes. That's right. Seems like yesterday, or last night.

    Would of loved to seen that game in person!! I didn't even see the end of it. Was 14 at the time and was so pissed off thinking they were going to lose I left the party on my bike and rode home only to see a neighbor run out of his house hollering that we had tied it.  Had to go inside to finish it then.

    I was extremely lucky as a kid. Got to see two great games that nobody would ever remember but they were amazing and impacted my love of sports.

     

    I was 8 years old and lived in Akron, Oh. My grandparents and my aunt took me up to Cleveland Stadium to see the world champion Oakland A's in town on a Saturday afternoon. One night after Dick Bosman threw a no hitter against Oakland. This was a beautiful july afternoon, 80 degrees and about 20,000 or so in the stands, but it seemed like a full house to a little kid like myself. It was only my second ever baseball game live, and I got to see a thriller. The tribe came back with two runs in the bottom of the 9th to win 10-9...what a fucking game !!! LOL awesome.

     

    Then in Magic Johnson's rookie season, my family went up to the coliseum to see the Lakers at the Cavs. Kareem put in 42 points, but the Cavs won in 4 OT's, 154-153. Amazing game.

     

    Those are games you'll never forget, especially when you see them live.

    But for me being at the UConn/Cuse 6 OT game was by far the best game I have ever been to live. Even though UConn lost.

    Metro north was forced to stay running later becaue the game went on so late. They stopped serving food and beverages at the end of 2nd half so for 6 OTs there was nothing. The Devo shot at the end of regulation that went in sent the whole Garden into a frenzy. I still recall getting texts and calls from friends letting me know the shot was no good and letting all the Cuse fans going bonkers know they had not won yet.

    It was also the best game Stanley Robinson might have played which means a lot to me since we have a good friendship. His windmill dunk in the first half was ridiculous. No one seems to ever believe me but he only takes 1 dribble from half court to him doing the windmill. Yes 1 dribble and he doesn't travel.

    I have never seen Cuse and UConn fans get along so well during a game. It was quite epic.

    I also had tickets to Cal's last game ever but unfortunately ended up missing that game. One of my biggest regrets to date.
