What's more exciting & if you could do one, which would it be?

Buzzer Beater swish - game winning shot in basketball?

Walk off grand slam home run in baseball

Hail Mary touchdown pass in football

thoughts?

it depends on the game.

Buzzer beater if we are down by 2 and i hit it from behind the half court line.

walk off if we are down by 3 with 2 outs and bases loaded

hail mary not really.

i'll take the winning goal in the world cup final myself; or maybe even better is making the final save in a world cup final penalty kick shootout.

Only if it is March Madness for a National title....I think this would be the greatest feeling.

but in a game 7 in baseball, especially the world series, you hang on literally every pitch because at any time it could mean the difference in the game

plus given the fact that baseball can be very low scoring, when someone hits a home run it's always exciting. if you hit a walk off home run in the world series to actually WIN the series the highlight will last forever not to mention joe carter is like a national hero in toronto

rounding the bases would be unreal knowing you're gonna get mobbed like a mother****er when you get to the plate followed by champagne etc, don't think anything else could compare, esp if you did it at home

Walk off grand slam, as that wouldnt be easy to do & likely rare at that too.
