    I was at the Alabama-Tennessee game this year

    I was also at
    Biggio's 3000
    Burke's walkoff in the 18th
    T-Mac's 13 in 35(this one is probably the one that sticks out the most in my mind)

    Spring 2003 (or 04?). UT defeated #4 Wake Forest and I got to run to court and be on Sportscenter.

    UT-Michigan Rose Bowl 2005

    Rockets-Jazz home game playoffs of 2007-2008 --> Intense!

    Game 6 of the first round last year was probably the most memorable I've been too.

    And also Mutombo becoming 2nd most all time shot blocking leader!

    Now I'm confused. Is it "Greatest Sports Moment" or "Moments"??? :confused:

    And it's not "Greatest Sports Moment You Were At", it's "Greatest Sports Moment You've Attended" or "Greatest Sports Moment Where You Were". C'mon, now. :eek:

    For me it would sadly have to be attending the 2008 World Cup when New Zealand beat Australia in the final and Australia could not call themselves the Rugby League World Champions for the first time since the mid 70's.


    It was an amazing game, an amazing occasion and seeing something that has never happened in my lifetime, I wouldnt change it for the world.

    Rockets game vs Blazers last year when Chuck Hayes made the best defensive play of the season when he drew the charge on Brandon Roy. That was AWESOME!!!

    Between the 4 - 6 second mark, you can see me sitting down after waving my Yao jersey around in my red Rockets hat!

    I was also at the season opener against the Lakers a couple of years ago when the Lakers made that crazy comeback with a minute or so left, and then Shane hit that dagger from the right side of the court to win the game! That was a great game and the Laker fans around me all were fun and joking around. :grin:

    The 18-inning Astros playoff game against the Braves.

    I had family from out of town with me and had to persuade them to stay a couple of times as the game went on and on and on and on...

    I'm glad I convinced them.

    That was an incredible experience.
