Most Memorable Games that I Didn’t See

I dont know about you, but I am so anxious/excited/keyed-up about the college football season starting that I can hardly concentrate. I have, however, been reflecting on past seasons which has led me to think about some of the most memorable VT games that I didnt see. These are the games that were not televised where I was at the time, forcing me to follow along by other means. In reverse order, here are my top games:
#4: UGH 10/25/07--I was in Monaco of all places for a tradeshow for the infamous Matty Ice BC game. I stayed up until 2 a.m. for the start of the game via internet radio...stayed up to the very bitter end well past 5 a.m. Made me so sick that I wouldnt have slept anyway!
#3: Debutante Ball 11/6/08--My dad (Class of 49) was convalescing after brain surgery, and the nursing facility did not carry ESPN. I had the pleasure of listening to the coming out party for Darren Evans vs. Maryland alongside my favorite Hokie. Dad always loved hearing Bill Roth and Mike Burnop call a game anyway--he would watch the game on television with the sound turned down and the radio on so that he could hear their play-by-play. Of course, Dad taped every game that he could so that he could break down the plays later. If you have not had the chance to hear Roth/Burnop call a gameyou should--outstanding!
#2: The Wedding 9/19/09--We've all been there--our niece got married smack in the middle of the Nebraska game! I had people text me throughout the game. I knew the long stretches of silence were not a good sign. The last few minutes of the game were like receiving teletype on D-Day with messages pouring in---Tyrod and the miracle in B'Burg!!
#1: The Comeback 10/28/04--I was on a business trip in Toronto on a Thursday night (again, no ESPN) when Bryan Randall orchestrated the comeback against GT. I always wondered what the people in nearby hotel rooms thought of the woman shouting GO! GO! YES! YES! at the top of her lungs and banging on the furniture.

Honorable Mention:--I got to see the game, but on 9/18/03 just as the Texas A&M game was starting, my dad sitting in Richmond lost both power and radio coverage to Hurricane Isabel so he did not. I started calling him every few minutes to give him an update. Finally, I just stayed on the phone for the last two hours with my own version of a play-by-play. I wasnt all that good, but for weeks afterwards, my mother said that she could hear Dad on the phone with his buddies saying "GO KJ, Go!" and she knew that he was relaying how he had seen the game.

What games do you remember under unusual circumstances?
