1 Swindon V Leicester play off final 2 Swindon V Sunderland play off final 3 Bristol City 0 v 4 Swindon in the 90/91 season 4 Birmingham 4 v 6 Swindon 5 Wimbledon v Liverpool FA Cup Final
I've never attended a sporting event that isn't football I don't think, except horse racing, but that's just an excuse to get pissed and waste all your money.

Non Swindon, mainly for the whole day out than just the game:
1. British GP (the Mansell one where Senna stopped on last lap) 2. SJ Sharks v Dallas Stars (4-0, four in the net - Pizza we get. Quite) 3. Oakland Raiders v Seattle Seahawks (close game, Raiders won by 1 or 2) 4. Bath v Wigan (battle of the codes, Twickenham) 5. Canada v Mexico (footy, terrible game, freezing cold, great fun laughing at both the Mexicans and the Canadians and a night out in Toronto).

Juan Pablo Montoya winning the grand prix of Monaco 2 years ago -my first ever win (my job is part of the racing team.)
Beating the ox at the manor ground in the last ever derby there.
The Posh game when Invincible scored 'that' volley to keep us up.
Any game we have beaten the shitty.
Another one from work- winning the second of two 1-2 finishes with both our cars the season before last with Montoya and Ralph Schumacher.

We wanna go somewhere else. We're not threatened by people anymore. All our insecurities have evaporated. We're in the clouds now. We're wide open. We're spacemen orbiting the earth. The world looks beautiful from here, man.

All Swindon for me
1) Play off final 1990 v Sunderland 2) Play off final 1993 v Leicester 3) April 86 v Chester when we won promotion from the old 4th Div 4) Beating Leeds 3-2 in Feb 90, met some Leeds fans at a service station on the way home who took the piss out of me for supporting Swindon, yeah ok then lads, who just won the game! 5) Swindon v Blackburn play off semi 1990 when we'd just got our 2nd to go 4-1 up on aggregate, and knowing that I'd be seeing Swindon at Wembley for the 1st time, which I'd never dreamt would happen a few years before that.
