I will one day go and watch the El Classico live.
I would really like to be at ringside at a world title fight, preferrably a heavyweight clash involving a British fighter.

Harlem Globetrotters came to Roker Park twice in the early 1960s! I was there for the first one, but missed the second. Some bloody big guys there mate - they had one called 'Tiny', and he was 6'-2"! I think they had two players over 7 foot. Well worth seeing them - brilliant entertainment.

Me? - I've always wanted to go to a Gurning world championship (so I can feel good-looking!). And how about the Merrills world championship at Hutton-le-Hole? (Merrills is an ancient board game saved from extinction in the pub at Hutton. Now it's an annual world championship with teams coming from Norway, Switzerland and all over the shop. Never been but like the sound of it).

 

[Bumblebore]

Bangkok women's ping pong (ahem) open championships. Can't recommend it highly enough.
