But there are some sports experiences every man should have and I have been lucky enough to experience some first hand.
One of the tops is a Yankee game at home in the stadium that Ruth built and now a new tradition has started.
If that game is while playing the Red Sox even better.
Another is a Title fight in the Felt Forum and or a Old Knicks Title game in Madison Square Garden, especially against the Celtics.
Another is a World Cup soccer match anywhere in Europe and especially when down to the final four matches
But for shear power, energy and emotion it would be any NCAA college basketball game final four match. Same with college football.
The power of it all running through you at any of these events is something as I said that every man should experience and I am sure there are others you guys have seen. But I think the ones I mentioned are among the very best of all I have seen all over the world.
