It's Friday, so I'm being all whimsical and wondering... what are the sporting occasions that you would most like to see and attend around the world - or, even better, that you have seen?
Here's my list (in no particular order):
*Boxing Day Test, MCG (esp. Ashes)
*Test at Kingston Oval, Jamaica (again, if England involved)
*Test at Newlands, Cape Town (ditto)
*All Blacks v. Lions (or England), Carisbrook, Dunedin, NZ
*South Africa v. Lions (or England), King's Park, Durban, SA
*El Superclasico: River v. Boca, El Monumental, Buenos Aires
*Milan derby: AC v. Internazionale, San Siro, Milan
*Barca v. Real, Nou Camp, Barcelona
*Old Firm: Celtic v. Rangers, Parkhead, Glasgow
*An Istanbul derby - say Galatasaray v. Besiktas, Ali Sami Yen, Istanbul
*Yankees @ Red Sox, Fenway Park, Boston
*England v. Wales, Twickenham, London
That'll probably do for now. I haven't done any of the above, incidentally, but then there's many years left to check all of these out...
