    Only things you haven't attended.

    Game 7 ALCS - Yankees vs. Red Sox at Fenway
    World Cup Final - Germany vs. Italy
    Michigan vs. Notre Dame - Notre Dame Stadium (gray, rain and 48 degrees please)
    Final Round at The Open - St. Andrews
    Duke vs. UNC - Cameron Indoor

    Those are in no particular order.

    Re: What are your Top 5 Sporting Events you'd like to attend?

    Subject to revision...

    >MCS/MNC game, anywhere with Sooners WINNING

    >Last day of an "Ashes" (Australia vs England) test match at Lord's Cricket Ground (like the one today*), preferably with England winning

    >World Cup Final, anywhere, preferably with the USA or England winning

    >Final Round at The Open, preferably at St. Andrews

    >World Series Game 7, preferably wth the Dodgers winning

    Honorable mention: Masters, Kentucky Derby, Superbowl (if the Saints ever make it)

    *Listening to this on the BBC is a hoot for an Anglophile or cricket fan.

    Re: What are your Top 5 Sporting Events you'd like to attend?

    in no particular order:

    1) Rally Acropolis and/or Sardinia (gravel vs. tarmac) Australia would be cool too.

    2) a Super Bowl (Dallas needs to catch up with Pittsburgh)

    3) game 7 of a World Series would be nice(STL), although a Yankees/Red Sox ALCS game would be interesting too

    4) an Iron Bowl or tOSU/Michigan or Army/Navy

    5) a Final Four (with OU of course)

    having been to multiple MNC and OU/Texas games, i'm pretty spoiled. i still need to see us win a crystal football though. one of these days i'm going to have to go to Austin to see UT/aTm since we never play on Thanksgiving, and that's about the only way i'd see a game in Austin since we never play there. after the game in Lawrence this year i'll have been to a game at all of the stadiums in the Big 12 but DKR.

    Re: What are your Top 5 Sporting Events you'd like to attend?

    1. Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals in Chicago...with the Hawks winning, of course.

    2. Manchester United vs Liverpool at Anfield on the last day of the PL fixtures with the title on the line (somebody's going to get #19 on that day)

    3. Dodgers at Red Sox Game 7 of the World Series (as great as the titles were in 2004 and 2007, winning a WS title at Fenway would trump those years)

    4. Watching a Grand Final in Aussie Rules Football at the MCG...with the Collingwood Magpies winning, of course.

    5. Daytona 500...any year...and BTW, I'm going to my first Nascar race in November at TMS. I can't wait.
    Just imagine there's a really obnoxious graphical sig here

    Re: What are your Top 5 Sporting Events you'd like to attend?

    1. OU in a National Championship game in either football or basketball...and hopefully coming out with a win.

    2. The FIFA World Cup. If not here than somewhere in Europe (England 2018?).

    3. Anfield for a Champions League match.

    4. Stanley Cup Finals in Canada.

    5. Oklahoma City Thunder in the NBA Finals (one can dream).
    at this point in the process, I can only assume it was a typo and they meant to say "cram"...

    I know; 2018 is likely going to Europe and England has to be at the front of the pack at this point. That's what I meant.


    And JohnnyMack, Germany vs. Italy in the Final? Barf.

    A game in south bend, about 4 in the afternoon, on a cold, gray day.
    A white out game in State College.
    Tennessee/Fla in Tennesse

    A perfect game.
