For me it is probably "The Catch"

Was the beginning of a 20ish year dynasty.

Mine is when Tim Bogar hit an in-the-park homerun in the Astrodome during a double header. It was a crazy play and I don't think anyone saw it coming.
I love it for a number of reason.
1 - I saw an in-the-park homerun on a crazy play.
2 - It was my first double header ever.
3 - I skipped school to go to the games.
4 - I met Randy Johnson that morning and got his autograph.

My favorite major sports moment is the Rockets winning their first NBA Championship. I was a kid but I can still remember how crazy the town was.

@funkadelic78: That is a classic play.

@wickedd365: The Rockets came out of no where for two years... Kind of overshadowed by #23. :(

@wigglemonster: We could have won again if we hadn't traded all of our star players off the next year.

Not that it meant much in the grand scheme of things but when the Redskins beat the Cowboys on primetime football with two long bombs from Mark Brunell to Santana Moss... I was alllll smiles.

I have a lot of favorites...

Landon Donavan's goal vs. Algeria was awesome..

Also, Bears Vs. Cardinals in 2006...

I was at this game as a Bears fan in Arizona. Bears were losing 23-3 at halftime. The quarterback for the Bears, Grossman had 6 turnovers. In the second half the Bears had two fumble returns for touchdowns and one punt return for a touchdown (Devin Hester's first). Then to top it all off the Arizona kicker had a chance to win it with seconds remaining and missed. The ensuing party adds to the memory as well.

How could I forget... The Cardinals coach exploding afterwards in the post game conference.

The Immaculate Reception, of course!

@wigglemonster: THEY WERE WHO WE THOUGHT THEY WERE!!!!

@meow57: Beat me by 5 minutes! Greatest play ever. Close second was Big Ben tackling the Colt's defender after the Bettis fumble near the goal line. Great upset, and a Super Bowl year. Awesome.

...Cinderella story. Outta nowhere. A former greenskeeper, now, about to become the Masters champion. It looks like a mirac... It's in the hole! It's in the hole! It's in the hole!

I like the one where the team is behind and then they unexpectedly get a point right near the end of the game to win it and they were big underdogs coming into it. Yeah, that was amazing.

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
