Even though I have never attended the Georgia Florida Game, I would think it has to be in the top ten somewhere. Two of if not the biggest states population wise in the Southeastern United States always are striving for tickets to the Worlds Largest Cocktail Party. Both schools deep in tradition and if you are from the South, I would think this one is about as good as it gets.

I'll tell you an underrated game that doesn't make a lot of lists is Vanderbilt-Kentucky at Memorial Gym in Nashville. It's the only gym in the country where the bench is in the end zones. The court is on a stage and is a really fun atmosphere.

Every baseball season, I always hope for a Dodger-Yankee World Series.

Went back in '78. Nothing like it since.

Alabama Auburn is tough to beat. Average IQ of fan is single digits though.

I need to see my Maize and Blue in Pasadena before I die.

Hopefully it's this year! But that's WAY optimistic.

I've been lucky enough to see 3 of the 4 in my young life and all were spectacular. Each was different and they all had something spectacular the others didn't.

Actually the three were all when I was visiting one of the schools on my college search (Navy, Duke, Notre Dame), but it was more of a chance for my Dad and I to go out and see some games we always watched together on TV.
