2007 AFC Championship game. After 18 years of going to Colts games this is easily the top moment.

That game was amazing even watching it on tv, can't imagine how fun it would be to be there.

A I-AA playoff game.

In 2004 James Madison University (JMU) had a magical season. They were not picked anywhere near the top 40 in the pre-season rankings, but went on to dominate pretty much everyone in the regular season.

There were, however, several other bigger powerhouses in I-AA. If it was a BCS style post-season system, they would have been no where near the nat'l championship.

But thanks to the playoff system, JMU went out to win three straight road games and then the national championship.

In the semi-final game they were facing the heavily favored powerhouse Furman at Furman. I was at this game. I am part of the band.

With less than 2 minutes to go and down by 6 (they blocked a 35-yd field goal to keep it to a 6 point deficit), JMU was inside their own 20 with a 1st and 20 after a holding penalty.

They drove the entire length of the field rather quickly right to the goal line. They failed to get it in on the first three tries. It was fourth and goal with like 19 seconds left in the game.

They snapped it, tossed it to the right, the defense went left and the JMU RB walked into the endzone to tie it up. The EP was good and JMU held on to win by 1 point.

They then dominated Montana in the championship game.

Pretty awesome stuff.

Women's World Cup semifinal in 2001. US beat Brazil in a pretty good match.

1994 Washington at Oregon
"The Pick" 1995 Rose Bowl was awesome as well even though we got killed.

2001 Fiesta Bowl when Oregon crushed Colorado. Wish I could have answered Rose Bowl even though we quite likely would have lost to Miami.

I've also been to various amazing Oregon basketball wins at Mac court.

UCLA vs. Gonzaga in the Sweet Sixteen of '06 Tourney

Women's World Cup in '01. it might have been women's soccer, but still such a sick game/finish.

I'm also going to the Dodgers-Giants game on Tuesday, hopefully Bonds makes history.

I was at this game and left early.

I was also at a Leafs playoff game where Yannic Perreault scored the 2OT winner against the flyers in 1999.

Game 5 of the Raptors Nets series this year, which was insane.
