Greatest sporting event you ever attended?

1996 USC vs. UCLA football game at the Rose Bowl. UCLA came back from a 17 point deficit in the 4th quarter to win in overtime. I experienced just about every emotion wathing that game. Total frustration when 'SC started to romp us, total disbelief when we tied the game and elation when UCLA won. I'm glad I got to experince it first hand.

A close second would be when UCLA beat USC 13-9 to knock them out of the BCS title game.

2006 #3 USC vs Oregon State

Was the most dramatic, emotional rollercoaster, thing I've ever seen in my life. The crowd was so loud, the stadium could be heard clear across town. USC came back for one last drive. They scored and needed a 2 pt conversion to tie the game. Our defense batted down the pass. They tried the onside kick and we took the win. The stadium literally shook as the fans fled to the field.

Was the greatest day of football I've ever witnessed and what made it even more special is it was Dad's weekend at OSU, so I got to share it with him.

I really wish I had been there to see the Beavers do it again to the then ranked #1 USC team this year, but I didn't have a ticket.

But you had a list of excuses

St Bavo 6th grade boys basketball vs St Pius. Championship game. St Pius beat us by large margin earlier in the season. The St Pius team was a bunch of ringers as they didn't have an actual school at that time. St Bavo was short and slow but the boys played their hearts out and beat the Goliath of St Pius by 14 points. I didn't even have a kid playing. My daughter was a cheerleader. I have never seen a game like it and probably never will again.
