The Super Bowl.

Football isn't my favorite sport, but this is the quintessential American sporting event.

I was pissed that I didn't get into the Giants WS games, but I survived. The NBA Finals would be cool, especially since I love hoop, but I would have rather seen Jordan play than go to a Finals game. World Cup would be up there. My boy went to South Africa last summer with his girl and had the time of his life. And I don't give a fuck about hockey.

The one potential event I'd really be interested in seeing, should it ever come to fruition, would be the the College Football National Championship that took place between the final two teams standing at the end of a playoff bracket.

PEACE

I've been to the stanley cup, us open (golf), the kentucky derby, and a few NCAA tournament games. Also MLB playoffs but that doesn't count.

On the bucket list:
NCAA finals
Super Bowl
Indy 500
NBA finals
World Series
The masters

I don't care if you like golf, those events are pretty fun. TV doesn't really do it justice.

And you can just walk around and drink all day.

Have been to a ton of great sporting events and this is the sickest one.

I go every year.

Even if you're not a race fan, it's impossible to prepare yourself for how enormous the track is, how many people are there (3-400k) and how loud and fast the cars are.

The spectacle is insane. I can't even imagine what it was like in the 70s/80s when the sport was 10x as popular as it is now.

Have never brought anyone who didn't want to come back.

I've actually been to the track, just not on raceday. We were playing golf in Indy and we took a tour and shit. My girlfriend went to Indiana, and she's been 4 or 5 times. Her stories are incredible.

Keep hearing it's like the Derby. Have you been to both? If so how does it compare. Two of the derbies I've been to are top 5 days of my life.
