Best Sporting Events

If you ask any sports fan I'm sure they have their top sporting events they'd like to attend before they die. Here are some to think about if you're creating a bucket list (Not in any particular order)
- Summer Olympics. Every four years the best athletes in the world come together in and compete to bring home the gold medal for their country. For 17 days, athletes put everything they have into competition with literally the worlds greatest athletes. A different city every time it is sure to be the trip of a lifetime.
- The World Series. Baseball is America's past time, and what better way to celebrate that with a trip to a world series. It doesn't even have to be your team, although most of us would like to see that, just being around that atmosphere is enough to make you want to be there. You can go for a game 1, or hope for a game 7 and witness a winner take all event you'll remember forever.
- Ohio State/Michigan. It is THE game in the college football season. No two teams hate each other more than Ohio State and Michigan. Watch the game from either The Horseshoe or inside the Big House. Over 100,000 fans decked out in their scarlet and gray or their maze and blue. Records don't matter, although fans on both sides would tell you otherwise sometimes, it is sure to be an amazing old school Big Ten battle.
- North Carolina/Duke. You either wear dark blue or light blue in this game. Much like Ohio State/Michigan, this is the ultimate game in the college basketball season. The teams, separated by 8 miles, play twice a year with the winner usually being the ACC regular season champs. Take a seat inside the Dean Smith Center, or travel down to Durham and witness Cameron Indoor. A National Title is nice, but beating the other shade of blue is that much better.
-The Masters. Simply put, a tradition unlike any other. Played on the beautiful Augusta National Golf Course in Augusta, Georgia, this 4 day event is the biggest golfing event of the year, it is the Super Bowl of the PGA Tour and sees the top golfers in the world compete for the famous Green Jacket. If you're able to get one of it not the toughest tickets to get in sports, enjoy the drive down Magnolia Lane leading up Augusta National. You won't forget it.
- NCAA Final Four. March Madness, simple at as that. A bracket full of top programs, cinderella teams, and everything in between. Those 64 teams are fighting for a chance to go to the Final Four and cut down the nets for a National Title. Grab a seat and watch the magic of March Madness.
-Stanley Cup Playoffs/Finals. Probably the most action packed event you can attend. Whether its the first round or the finals, there will never be a shortage of big hits and amazing goals. Often referred to as the best athletes on the planet, these superstars go 100 miles an hour every night in hopes of raising Lord Stanley's Cup.
-A night game in College Football. If you love college football, this is a must.There are few things like the atmosphere of a night game between to college football teams. There are certain places where you have to go for this one; Tiger Stadium- home of the LSU Tigers, The Horseshoe- home of the Ohio State Buckeyes, Beaver Stadium- home of the Penn State Nittany Lions, Bryant Denny Stadium- home of the Alabama Crimson Tide, The Swamp- home of the Florida Gators. Just one of those things you have to see to believe.
-Red Sox/Yankees Game. Need I say more?
-Tailgating at any event. This is a must. You can be the average sports fan and show up 20 minutes before the event and just enjoy it for a couple hours. Or you can show up hours before, fire up the grill, grab a beer, and have a good time. You might want to head to a college football game for the best experience. The schools mentioned above are GREAT places to go.

Others to attend: World Cup (every 4 years), Super Bowl; I'd rather stay home and watch the commercials and have a party but that's just me, NBA Finals, Kentucky Derby, NBA Slam Dunk Contest, Home Run Derby, WWE Wrestlemania.
