A long answer but hopefully a meaningful one

I am 34 now, ever since childhood I'd say I've seen at least 90% of all home games.

That being said, making a top 5 list would be far too difficult. However, I will list some of my regrets and some of my favorites.

REGRETS

Not seeing Clemson 31 Ohio State 0 in person. That was a hell of a game where we just established dominance.

Not going to Florida State this past season and sitting next to the guy reading the book in the stands.

FAVORITES

Peach Bowl 2004
My freshman year I met a bunch of friends from Atlanta and we rode Marta from the northernmost station and wreaked havoc on downtown ATL, one of the best nights of my life. Icing on the cake was a huge win over TN, it was New Years Eve, and I finally got to kiss my freshman year crush and we talked all night.

Florida State 2003
Freshman year I was part of the last group to tear down the goalposts after we won in Death Valley against FL State for first time in over a decade. (After that game they installed the goalposts we have now that lower to the ground) My dad decided not to come to the game cause he thought the Noles would blow us out. I still have not let him forget it (hehe)

Natty 2016 was incredible because it showed the heart of the team. It was also the last game I got to see in person with my uncle who died before the next season. My nephew was born during the game so that just add the specialness.

Natty 2018 (Santa Clara)
My grandma lives close to the Bay Area and I got to stay with her for a few days and go to the game. Great stadium to watch a game in. Also great stadium to watch an "inferior" team stomp the dookie out of the "Greatest college football team of all time".
We just plain kicked the Tide's ###.


As good as those were, I'm looking forward to many more special moments.

it wouldn't be to watch a football game. I might change a couple things.

1958 NFL Championship game. Baltimore Colts vs New York Giants. First game ever to go into sudden death overtime. Often called the greatest game ever played.

You didn’t say it had to be a Clemson game.
