Gotta go with Douglas knocking the piss out of the baddest man on the planet. The odds were 42:1 in favor of Tyson, the greatest differential in heavyweight history.

Default The 1979 Cotton Bowl Classic

I was at this game and left in the 3rd quarter because there was no way we (I lived in Houston) we were going to lose.. ...from wiki....
.


The 1979 Cotton Bowl Classic, popularly called the Chicken Soup Game,[1] was a football game played between the University of Notre Dame and the University of Houston. The game took place on an unusually cold day in Dallas, Texas, played the day after Dallas's worst ice storm in 30 years. Quarterback Joe Montana, who had the flu, led Notre Dame to a come-from-behind victory in the second half after eating a bowl of chicken soup.[2]

The final play was a touchdown pass to receiver Kris Haines with 0:00 on the clock. Placekicker Joe Unis was forced to kick the extra point twice after a Notre Dame penalty, but was successful both times, and Notre Dame won the game 35–34.[4]
