Things you wish you had seen live

-Warney's 700th wicket (I was there that day but had to leave to go to a funeral, he took it while I was walking out :()
-Australia winning one of its 3 world cups (finals) (cricket)
-That Iraqi journalist throwing his shoes at George Bush
-The 2007 Preliminary Final (Geelong v Collingwood) (AFL)
-When Nicky Winmar proudly pointed to his black skin when Collingwood fans were being racist (AFL).
-For just one of Gary Ablett Senior's many incredible games (particularly one of the 3 where he kicked 14 goals) (AFL).

I saw us win a flag so that fulfilled my greatest sporting wish, although wish I hadn't seen the 2008 one.

Waste of money eh? :p

Next season if your playing Essendon dont bother, you'll come out disapointed. ;)
 
Off the top of my head, cricketing wise...

When Bangla beat Aus. Was out at my cousin's place, was returning how when I saw the result on the news...
Any India-Pak match here at Sharjah...
 
The Big Bang.
The powering on of the first ever computer chip.
T20 World cup 2008 final.
The Ramayan war(If anyone's heard the Hindu stories, we've had some interesting evidence on this though).
The splitting of the Tethys sea (If it was like instantaneous).
Any nuclear bomb explosion (Not for the fun part, the observation one).
Landing of the Phoenix lander on Mars..

The first few that comeup in my mind. 3 of the above are theories though. :p
 
Sachin 148 against the Aussies in the famous 'Sandstorm' match.
Laxman 281 (ARGH, how could I miss this!?)
Ganguly 144 at the Gabba
Warney's magic ball
'83 WC final

Few off the top of my head.
 
What events of the past do you wish you had seen live?

My list would be:
'66 World Cup Final
Oasis at Wembley in 2000
'The Rumble In The Jungle' - Ali vs Foreman
See Johnny Cash play live
Lynyrd Skynyrd playing 'Free Bird'

There are probably more, but they'll do for now.

Man Utd v Bayern Munich, CL Final '99.
Queen at Wembley
 
Miandad's last ball six match.
I remember watching that match on Cricket Classics on Ten Sports. What's worse, I didn't realise it was that match. I thought it was just some other India-Pak match, which India finally won for a change. It finally dawned on me when Chetan Sharma ran in to bowl the final ball...to Javed Miandad...with 6 runs needed. I was praying so hard to God that he didn't hit it for a six...and he did. I was so heart broken. :(
 
Cricket 92 World Cup
Ali vs Joe Frazier the Fight of the Century
Amir Khan vs Breidis Prescott
 
That Naked Woman who want on the Cricket Pitch
That woman who shown her Babs in a Cricket Match
2003 World Cup Final..Just love to see India getting beat
