NFL Playoffs or Super Bowls — Greatest Events You Watched Live In Person or on TV

1. The Music City Miracle — the 1999 season AFC Wildcard round, the Tennessee Titans defeat the Buffalo Bills in Nashville TN at the end of the game: the Bills, having just scored on a 41-yard field goal with 16 seconds remaining in the game to take a 16-15 lead, kicked off to the Titans’ Lorenzo Neal. Lorenzo Neal pitched the ball to Frank Wycheck who lateraled the ball to Kevin Dyson who ran 75 yards for the winning touchdown. Titans win 22-16!

2. NFC Wild Card game- Arizona Cardinals vs. Atlanta Falcons, Jan. 3 2009. The only playoff game I’ve been to. My brother was living in Phoenix at the time so I drove down and we went to the game. Hall-of-Famer Kurt Warner threw a touchdown pass to future Hall-of-Famer Larry Fitzgerald. The Cardinals won 30-24 and made it to the Super Bowl that year, but lost to the Steelers.

3. Super Bowl 51, the only overtime Super Bowl. It was 3-28 in the 3rd, New England losing to Atlanta. Final score was 34-28, New England wins in overtime.

4. Buffalo Bills Jan 4 2020, their first playoff touchdown in 20 years, on a trick play early in the 1st quarter. Too bad they lost. [THE FIRST BILLS PLAYOFF TOUCHDOWN IN 20 YEARS! - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIzszeu75X0)

5. The comeback game - January 3, 1993. The Houston Oilers were ahead by 32 points but the Buffalo Bills came back and won the game in overtime. I was there in the stadium.

6. Super Bowl XLI - Devin Hester returns the opening kickoff 92 yards for a touchdown. The rest of the game, ugh…

7. 55-10! **Fifty Five** to Ten! Yes! Go Niners!

8. Super Bowl XXXIV, 2000. Rams vs Titans. Last play of game, Titans down 23-16, Tennessee’s Kevin Dyson was tackled at the Rams’ 1-yard line, preventing a possible tie and what would have been the first overtime Super Bowl. The Houston Oilers drought continues.

Also it’s “Nipplegate” - Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction. But I was outside like I usually am during halftime, throwing a football around until the 3rd quarter starts.

13. Super Bowl XXXII, too painful to watch, because my then-girlfriend who’s now my wife and I fell in love on just the night before. We were coworkers and we went to an office party but we weren’t ready to “announce”. She and I had to watch it, apart, not sitting down together, painfully just a few feet apart. And, oh yeah, there was a game to be watched, “ **This. One’s. For. John.** ”

2002 World Series – how painful!  
ETA: especially game 6! [2002 World Series - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2002_World_Series#Game_6)

> [@](#):
>
> Leading 5–0 with one out in the bottom of the seventh inning, eight outs away from the Giants’ first World Series title since moving to San Francisco in 1958, Giants manager Dusty Baker pulled starting pitcher Russ Ortiz, who had shut out the Angels during the game, for setup man Félix Rodríguez after Ortiz gave up consecutive singles to third baseman Troy Glaus and designated hitter Brad Fullmer. In a widely publicized move, Baker gave Ortiz the game ball as he sent him back to the dugout. During the pitching change the Rally Monkey came on the JumboTron, sending 45,037 Angels fans into a frenzy.
> 
> Angels first baseman Scott Spiezio then fouled off pitch after pitch before finally hitting a three-run home run that barely cleared the wall in right field…

… and the walls caved in from there.
