Sporting Event poll
I posted this on my local board & then thought I should post it here too!
Where is one place/event that you've always wanted to attend that you have?
DH & I attended the MLB All-Star game (when it was in Detroit) in '05, just 2 weeks before our wedding. We got the 2 yr 20 game package w/2 of my girlfriends. It was so worth it, that's the one All-Star game out of the 4 major sports that I've always wanted to attend ever since I was a little girl, so when it was coming to Detroit I made sure I was going to it!
Where is one place/event that you would like to attend?
I would love to go to Wimbeldon, just the history & such, I love watching it each year. We've been on a tour when we were in London in '06, but just not the same as watching a game at centre court.
Re: Sporting Event poll
Always wanted to go to and did:
A Final Four with my alma mater, Marquette. It happened in 2005 and we piled into my little Ford Focus and drove 9 hours from St. Louis to New Orleans. Of course we got absolutely destroyed by Kansas, but that doesn't take away from the excitement of going and cheering on our team. And the celebration of actually making the Final Four when it was so unexpected.
Would like to go but haven't (yet):
The Olympics. Winter or summer.
I've always wanted to attend the SEC Championship Game (with Auburn playing in it) and we have.
I've always wanted to attend the BSC National Championship Game (specifically with Auburn playing in it) and we were going this year but couldn't because of our IVF cycle. I've also always wanted to attend the NCAA Final Four with Carolina playing.
TI, IUIs, IVF = c/ps and BFNs
Where is one place/event that you've always wanted to attend that you have?
I always wanted to attend a Duke game in Cameron. I went to Duke for grad school, so I finally got my chance to go to games. So I have been to numerous games in Cameron, including two Duke/UNC games and watching Duke win the Final Four from Cameron in 2001. It is an awesome venue to watch a game in!
Where is one place/event that you would like to attend?
I would love to be at the World Cup final when USA finally wins one!
Where is one place/event that you've always wanted to attend that you have?
I really wanted to go to a bowl game and NBA playoff game. Went to both last year - Cotton Bowl and when the Thunder hosted the Lakers at home for two out of three games.
Where is one place/event that you would like to attend?
NBA All-Star weekend...almost went last year when it was in Dallas, but didn't feel like ponying up a ton of money for crappy seats. I'd also like to go to a World Cup match.
I don't have the opportunity or the finances to go to many major sporting events, but the most exciting thing I've seen is going to Nashville to the OVC tournament, and watching my Murray State win and get to go to the Big Dance. That was priceless.
My sister, since she's in Pep Band, got to go to San Jose last year and watch Murray State beat Vandy and then lose (barely) to Butler.
I would love to go to the SEC Basketball Tournament Championship, with UK winning.
Where is one place/event that you've always wanted to attend that you have?
A BCS game. We went to last year's Sugar Bowl. Wasn't my first choice for teams, but my dad's a UC alum and we figured how many times will we have a chance to go to a big game like that? Plus, we get to say we ended Tim Tebow's college career.
Where is one place/event that you would like to attend?
Iron Bowl. In Auburn. WDE.
