Default ESPN's Jim Caple's 101 List of Must See Sporting Events

An interesting list of must see sporting events before you die that was compiled by ESPN writer Jim Caple. Also 10 sporting events to avoid.

A sporting event that is not on the list that should be on is the annual Army-Navy footbal game.

Army-Navy would be cool, along with a Super Bowl, and I am surprised that he left off the Little League World Series in Williamsport, PA. Awesome, and free, experience...

The March Ons are great and so are the Spirit Spots, where the Cadets & Midshipmen bust on each other in video shorts on the Jumbotron (Army/Navy game)

56. All Blacks rugby game (various dates, New Zealand). The world's most famous rugby team is a national treasure in New Zealand (imagine if everyone in the U.S. loved the Yankees and you get an idea). Just be sure to show up early -- as exciting as their games are to watch, their pregame performance of the Haka is not to be missed.

I lived in Billtown for a year a couple of years ago, and fell in love with the town. LLWS is great, but the rest of the year is pretty cool, too...
