Martin Van Nostrand All-American

I should clarify for most of these I didn’t really have a rooting interest they

are just famous and dramatic sports moments. Personal favorites would be BYU stuff like Nebraska game, Iona comeback, taking down unbeaten Zags, etc.

Also personally memorable are 2002 gold medal hockey game, 2002 NFC championship game Ronde Barber pick 6 to clinch, Bautista bat flip, EE 2016 wild card game walkoff home run, and some early 2000s Maple Leafs playoff OT goals.

What has been the coolest sports moment you’ve seen live?

That 4x100 relay felt like all of America was rooting together. What a trip. My favorite moment was Beck to Harline.
