out of all the Yankees .... past or present ... who has your favorite response to the roll call? I always like Granderson's "heart attack" from Sanford & Son.

"THIS IS THE BIG ONE ELIZABETH" good stuff right there.

Honorable mention: Notre Dame football. STEEPED IN TRADITION.

I'm not really much of a Notre Dame fan (go Buckeyes) but since my daughter will be attending school there I don't have much negative to say.

2 years ago I had the unique experience of getting V.I.P. treatment at the Notre Dame v. Navy game and I was in awe the entire day. From the moment I stepped foot on the campus I had goosebumps. We visited the Gold Dome, got pics with Touchdown Jesus, went to Catholic Mass with the players before the game, followed the band as they marched across campus and into the stadium before the game, and of course cheered like hell at "Shipping up to Boston" while the students threw each other up in the air. Truly a memorable day.

'We' were told that, besides football, only one other sporting event is allowed to take place on the Notre Dame football field: the annual Sunburst marathon finishes on the field. That was partly why I ran it one year as my Boston qualifier.

Probably obscure unless you are from Nebraska, but when the balloons are released when Nebraska makes it first score.

Lighting of the Olympic torch.

Seeing two boxers touch gloves mid-ring at the start of the final round in a title fight.

haha, too funny. Can't believe I missed this when I first read the thread. Me and my Dad use to call him "neck". His neck was attached to his torso via a slinky!
