Here's the subject - What's the most memorable sports moment you've witnessed, either live or on TV - which means that it has to have happened in your lifetime.

For me, it happened in the third quarter of Super Bowl XXXII. With the game tied at 17, and the Broncos facing third-and-six on the Packers 12 yard line, Elway dropped back to pass, couldn't find anyone open, so took off running. As he neared the first down marker, instead of heading to the sideline, hopeful of getting to the sticks, he turned upfield. LeRoy Butler's eyes lit up, and he ducked his head and lowered his shoulder looking to just destroy Elway. Instead, Elway put to use his self-described "three inch vertical leap" to try to jump Butler. He ended up getting hit in the legs by Butler, thus spinning him around, just as he got hit by another Packer defender - making for the memorable "helicopter play" - it sent him spinning through the air, landing at the 4 yard line for a first down. Shannon Sharpe said after he saw that and then saw Elway get up, pumping his fist, he said "It's on." He knew at that moment that they had to, and were going to, win.

Just thinking of the play still sends chills down my spine just like it did when I watched it happen. I knew that was the beginning of the end of the Broncos being known as a team who could never win the big game. I knew they would win....and they did.

My most memorable moment live was the Aaron Boone HR in Game 7 of the 2003 ALCS.

That might also be my most memorable period. Scott Norwood missing wide right in the super Bowl against the Giants is up there. So is the Derek Jeter "Mr. November" home run (although later on that night one of my best friends hooked up with a girl I liked, I almost got into a fight, and I almost got arrested Not good times)
