What games (any sport) have you attended that had a great moment in sports occur? The “I was there” games/events.
LA Coliseum - Joanne Benoit winning the gold medal in the first women’s Olympic marathon marathon
Dodger Stadium - Kirk Gibson’s World Series homer off Dennis Eckersley
Anaheim Stadium - David Henderson’s ALCS “one out from elimination” homer off Donnie Moore.
The Murph - Steve Garvey’s NLCS walk off homer off Lee Smith. It was used in the TWIB opening for the next season.
Fenway Park - Carl Yastrzemski’s 3,000 hit. Knowing I would be in Boston for Sox -Yanks I had friends get tickets. Yaz went hitless for three or four games until I got there. It was a cheapie. Many believe Willie Randolph let it get by him.
Anaheim Stadium - (more cumulative) Every one one of Eric Dickerson’s 2,105 yards he gained at home.
Riviera Country Club, LA - (the picture was iconic for years) Hal Sutton and Jack Nicklaus walking up the 18th fairway. Nicklaus lost what fans thought was his last shot at a major. He won his last three years later. It was Sutton’s first major win.
