Which major event would you rather attend?!

[cboy4]

I was thinking about how it would be fun to go the convention and see what that's all about.

But if one of my teams was in a championship game, I think I'm leaning sports.

And since I've already seen my 49ers win a Super Bowl in person, I'm going World Series.

How bout you?

[Flabbergasted]

1. Never been to Burning Man. I heard it's nice. nt

[LSparkle]

YEAHHHHH!

Now THAT's something I've wanted to go to for YEARS! Burn, baby, burn!!!!

[Captain Hilts]

2. I'm 'Mookie', I'd rather attend Game Six of my team's World Series....nt

[RL3AO]

3. Easy. Vikings in the Super Bowl.

Hard not to laugh after reading that right?

Second would be Stanley Cup.

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

4. Obama' s Inauguration

We're already talking about going, should he be elected.

[KAZ]

11. What he said.

[XemaSab]

25. w00t

:D

[Kittycat]

29. I'm hitching a ride with the emperor.

:loveya:

[DesertRat]

5. I've been to Game 7 of the World Series (and we won!)

So my second choice is the Democratic Convention. Especially this year! :party:

[cboy4]

10. I hate you.

Yankees-Diamondbacks I'm guessing?

And what a thrilling finish that was. :)

[DesertRat]

23. Yup.

That was an incredible evening I'll never forget! :woohoo: :applause: :woohoo:

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

6. Worldwide Peace convention/meditation

would be the event I would wish to attend. Hmmm....since it would be worldwide, I guess I KNOW I would attend! :)

[nonconformist]

7. Detroit Lions in the Super Bowl?

Obviously, I'd have to pick that.

[Faygo Kid]

50. Exactly! Would also mean Hell freezing over that day, though.

[nonconformist]

58. *sob*

Next season will be our year, I can feel it!

Yes, I've been saying that every year for over 20 years.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

8. God that's a tough one.

I'd have to choose between the Superbowl and my Seahawks losing because of bad calls by corrupt refs vs. the convention and seeing my candidate lose because of bad calls by corrupt superdelegates.

[DissentIsPatriotic]

9. U2 performing live in my living room. n/t

[Iktomiwicasa]

12. Good to know there is at least one other hockey fan here :)

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

13. Other: Juror in the Bonds trial.

:D

[cboy4]

17. Oh here we go.

[Drunken Irishman]

14. FUCK, I voted wrong. I meant NBA Finals, but clicked Super Bowl.

[Johnny__Motown]

15. Other.... Barack Obama's Inaugural

[Johnny__Motown]

16. double post sorry

[hogwyld]

18. Bush/Cheney sentencing hearing!! n/t

[Mz Pip]

Mz Pip
:dem:

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

20. WE WANT THE CUP!!! WE WANT THE CUP!!!

No brainer, that one was...

[Forkboy]

21. Goddammit, I hate it when you force me to agree.

;)

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

22. !

:toast:

[Forkboy]

26. Hockey will unite us all!

:toast:

[RL3AO]

27. I hope I will see the Cup in Minnesota someday.

Preferably this year.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

35. I Think You Fans Deserve It. I Do Hope It Comes There Someday For Ya!

Best. Feeling. Ever.

[Iktomiwicasa]

37. I'm in S. Dakota, but I gotta admit...

I'm a San Jose Sharks fan for the simple and shallow reason that they have the best N.A. athlete in pro sports. Good to see the Cheechoo Train chugging along again :headbang:

[RL3AO]

40. I don't know where you live, but if you love hockey

you have to come to Minnesota sometime for the High School State Tournament in the middle of March. 18000 people watching High School hockey is amazing.

[Iktomiwicasa]

41. I'm clear on the western end of the state.

[Forkboy]

45. Minnesota has the best hockey fans, and I say that from Boston.

I'd love to see you guys get a cup. Just not before we do. :)

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

32. You See What Happened To Zednik?

Made my stomach turn...

God I hate when shit like that happens. Thank God he's ok!

[Iktomiwicasa]

36. Damn that was

ugly. Lucky that man is going to be ok.

[Forkboy]

42. That was scary. I'm amazed that hasn't happened far more often.

Reminded me of Clint Malarchuk getting his jugular sliced open years ago. Clint got 300 stitches, spent one night in the hospital and was in practice four days later. I love hockey. :)

[Iktomiwicasa]

44. Zednick is out...

...for the remainder of the season, including playoffs.

[Forkboy]

49. That sucks, but if he's ok that's all that matters.

Watching the video gave me chills. :scared:

[Iktomiwicasa]

57. That type of injury

they cannot risk any hard contact until it is totally healed. A rupture of the carotid could be fatal.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

55. First Thing I Thought Of Too.

I almost vomit when I watch THAT video though. Ain't nothing compares to that one...

[Forkboy]

62. I remember ESPN showed the clip...ONCE.

They wouldn't show it again. Too gory. Malarchuk would have died had there not been a EMT crew at the stadium that night, according to the docs who treated him. I like gory movies, but I remember getting queasy watching that. He was on his knees when the skate hit him, and before he hit the ice there was already a huge puddle of blood. I thought he was a dead man.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

63. Yup. Amazing He Survived That. Each Time I See The Vid, I Still Don't Believe They Saved Him.

Unreal. Just unreal.

[nonconformist]

48. Yeah, that was horrific. nt

[cboy4]

46. I don't believe unification is allowed in GD Primaries

No wait, that's the sports forum.

[Forkboy]

52. Aw hey...I love Bonds too.

Why can't we all just get along? :evilgrin:

[cboy4]

56. You're such a liar

lol

[Forkboy]

59. LMAO...ok, you got me there.

At least he doesn't play for the Yankees though. :)

[Iktomiwicasa]

34. Ice hockey

the only pro sport fit to be on TV!

[Forkboy]

24. Friggin Cup baby!!!!!

BUT, if I HAD to choose something else I'd take seeing Nomeansno tour the east coast again before I die.

[rug]

28. That depends. Who pays for the room at the Convention?

[Bucky]

33. It's the delux CNN suite at the Marriot, but you got to share a queensized with Wolf

And trust me: he's a kicker.

[rug]

38. I suppose it's better than being woken up with a "HA!" at 3 am.

[Bucky]

30. The Dick Cheney sentencing hearing in The Hague

I want a front row seat and a big ass bag of popcorn.

[cboy4]

54. Big ass bag of popcorn.

:spray:

:thumbsup:

[robbedvoter]

31. Other - Buscho trial

[Ian David]

67. I'd rather watch the sentence carried out. n/t

[Raine]

39. No question about it...the Democratic Convention

I've always wanted to go to the convention so much!!! :bounce:

[Dr.Phool]

43. Pink Floyd reunion.

That has about as much chance of happening as the Browns going to the Super Bowl.

[WCGreen]

47. The Beatles at the Cavern Club in Liverpool...

[whatchamacallit]

51. 1st thing that came to my mind was one of the Beatles shows n/t

[Blue-Jay]

53. Spinal Tap concert.

[Little Star]

60. Ocean front vacation in Indian Shores, Florida. The rest , I'll either

read about, hear on the radio, find out about on my computer or see on tv. Then of course there is my husband who insists on telling me every detail about football. I'm a baseball fan myself.

[tedoll78]

61. As a Saints fan, this one is easy.

I'd like to go to the Superbowl with the Saints playing in it with my mother and father at least once in our lifetimes; I'm tired of having to cheer for backup teams year after year.

[cboy4]

65. Yea, there's nothing like winning it. But just keep in

mind, if the Saints finally win one, you'll then say to yourself, "I just want them to win twice in my lifetime."

lol

Of course I know it's easy talk coming from a guy whose team has won it five times.

[ileus]

64. The Masters...

[Ian David]

66. I'd most like to witness final dispensation of justice at The Hague. n/t

[tammywammy]

68. Game 7 NBA Finals

I mean this year's convention is going to be really exciting and I wouldn't pass up the chance to go, but yeah I'd love to see my Mavs get to game 7 and actually win. :)

[LiberalHeart]

69. Other: Dinner with John Edwards.

[gmudem]

70. The Stanley Cup Finals.

Can't wait to see the Rangers get back.
