A top monent was back in the early/mid-70s was in an Oakland Raiders/Houston Oilers game. The Oilers stunk and the Raiders were winning about 35-0 with about 8 minutes to go in the game. The Astrodome had already just about empited out.

During a stoppage in the action, ABC cameras panned to a secion of seats in the upper deck with only one guy in it. The camera panned in on this guy slumped down in his seat with his feel over the back of the seat in front of him. Once in close, the guy realized he was on camera and flipped the bird to the nation.

Dandy Don Meredith never missed a beat. He immediately said, "Yes sir, he wants us all to know that the Oilers are #1 in the nation."

If that isn't a highlight, then ignore the list!
