Oh good lord how could I forget...
Superbowl XXV, 1991, My beloved Giants vs the only real NY Team, the Buffalo Bills, sitting in the sun at Tampa stadium... (Paid off that trip for a year, but I was going to be there.. ) The collective stadium holding their breath as Scott Norwood of the Bills attempted a 47 yard fieldgoal in the waning seconds of the game... and -- WIDE RIGHT!!! Giants WIN!!! Final Score 20-19 - Whitney Houston, in her pre-crackhead days, rendition of the Star Spangled Banner, as a newfound patriotism found it's way to the US because the Gulf War has just begun.. Never a moment I will forget...
NY Rangers winning the Stanley Cup over Vancouver in 1994 --for the first time in 54 years... Sitting in the bar next to the Garden wiht a few friends I had a death grip on one friends arm the entire third period -- he had marks on his arm for about a week after...
