2008 men’s Wimbledon final would have been on BBC, right?

It was. I still remember that whole evening and seeing even non tennis fans tuning in

Murray winning Wimbledon the first time was something very special. 2013 I think - watched it in the pub and even die hard tennis haters were glued to it.

2005 on the 16th, but I suspect that was probably on Sky Sports?

 

[Vidyoyo]

That episode of Eurotrash where Franck Lebouef entertained the women with massive tits

Jonathan Edwards breaking the world record twice at the Triple Jump final 1995 in Gothenburg.

 

[Rams]

Big Norm’s winner against Everton in the ‘85 cup final

Not necessarily an all time great event but I remember watching Eubank v Benn on terrestrial TV - it sparked my love of boxing

It's sad just how many sports are now unavailable to so many people, especially youngsters who may well have been inspired by them but don't get that opportunity anymore

I've seen that so many times and it never fails to amaze me. One of the greatest pieces of skill I've ever seen in any sport.

I finally remember being in a beer garden when super Sunday at the London Olympics happened. People who weren't really following it were glued to the TV as it started to unfold. It was a great atmosphere.
