First we take Michigan--then the whole world!
Only pro athlete I've ever met was Austin Carr who used to play for the Cavs.
My little sister can do me one better. Our family was in San Antonio on vacation, and she was playing on the elevators...about 11 or 12 years old. Then a group of black guys enter the elevator. They all tower over her. She looks up, incredulous at so many tall guys in one place, and says, "Gee...you guys should play basketball!" They all laughed...they were the Cavs in town for a game.

He drives around, all over the town...
As much as I hope I'm not one of those losers who brags, "I saw (insert athlete) play back in the day," there are a few moments that were pretty memorable.
Baseball: Saw Bonds hit one into the cove in 2003. I hate that piece of garbage, but it was absolutely amazing.
Saw Joe Randa hit the game winning home run on 2005's opening day in Cincinnati. Opening day in Cincy is always a blast, but that was f'ing nuts. It was pretty much the only highlight from that year.
NCAAF: Too many OSU highlights, but Eddie George's single game rushing record against the Illini was incredible. Jack Nicklaus dotting the I was pretty cool as well.
NFL: As a Bengal fan, there is I want to remember. However, the December 17, 2000 game against the Jags is one for the ages. The game itself was awful with the exception of Peter "Lenscrafters" Warrick running back an 82 yard punt for a TD. What is memorable was it being the 2nd coldest game in Cincy history. Yeah, it sucked.
