What is the greatest game/match/event you have ever seen?

Post by Big Breeze »

Everybody has one that stands out. Mine has to be Game 6 of the 2011 World Series. It didn't start off as a great game, but the drama that ensued was legendary.

What is yours, yo?

Jan 1, 1994 Orange Bowl between FSU and Nebraska. Tommy Frazier is still the best college player I have seen which is saying something when on the other side of the field that night was Ward, Dunn, Vanover and Brooks.

Marquette vs. DePaul. Meaningless big east game that went 3 over times before DePaul finally upset the Eagles. DePaul made like 44 out of 45 free throws or something absurd. Two Dieners on the court

Game 4 of the 93 world series. 15 -14 jays.

it was as good as, or better than last year's game 6. most people here were probably 2-8 years old at the time so they get a pass for not having seen it.

game 6 as well. joe carter. booya!

game 6 of the 2011 world series.

the 94 stanley cup (even though the canucks lost)

the 2011 stanley cup (even though the canucks lost)

some shit jordan did.

Game 7 of 1991 World Series Braves vs. Twins (Jack Morris 10 inning complete game shutout)

Game 163 2009 Tigers vs. Twins

Game 6 of 2011 World Series Cardinals vs. Rangers

2004 ALCS (basically the whole thing I guess) Yankees vs. Red Sox

(Assuming, based on other responses, this is just stuff you watched live but not in person. In-person, Game 163 is the greatest I've ever witnessed.)
