    I want to spend a week in England ... mainly to go to 3-4 Premier League matches.

    A week at Augusta would be nice.

    And an LSU home game, Saturday night, just for the atmosphere.

    Definitely the Derby.
     
  3. Shotglass,
    I've never spent a Saturday night at LSU, but I have spent a Saturday night at The Swamp. Talk about an atmosphere, but I would bet nothing beats being with 80,000 drunk Cajuns.

    See a Stanley Cup-clinching game live involving New Jersey Devils (couldn't get to Game 7 in 2003, but that would have been my ultimate ticket ever)
    See a Super Bowl live involving the Minnesota Vikings
    See the World Series-clinching game involving the Colorado Rockies

    The last two probably won't happen in my lifetime, but here's a few things I want to do:

    1. Take a tour of the Hockey Hall of Fame and catch an NHL home game in each Canadian franchise's city.
    2. Go to the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown with my father and brother.
    3. Football game between Minnesota and Green Bay -- in the cold.
    4. Attend a major golf tournament (could happen in 2008 since U.S. Open will be in San Diego).

    Sub a tractor pull for the monster truck show and I have win, place and show... not that I'm proud of that

    I completed that by age 14. Is that a bad thing?

    Misnomer -- most LSU fans are NOT Cajuns.

    My list in 2 parts:

    Been there, done that...
    Final Four
    World Series
    Olympics
    Kentucky Derby
    MLB All-Star Game
    The holy trinity of baseball stadiums (Wrigley, Yankee pre and post renovation, and Fenway)

    Still to go...
    Augusta and/or US Open (preferably at Pebble)
    Any Saturday (but preferably one when a game is going on) at ND Stadium.
    An Army-Navy game.

    Serious answer: See the world by attending every F1 race in a single season.

    Old Firm fixture.
    World Cup Final (hopefully with the US in it).

    All the rest can get te feck.
     
  12. I wouldn't mind attending a Brazil vs. England World Cup final
