For me it's hands down game 7 of the 2010 NBA Finals. The entire finals had just been one stretch of heart wrenching, blood pressure rising, bi-polar inducing roller coaster.
My family and I were driving back from Memphis, TN and we ended up stopping in Iowa for the night and to watch the game as my father in law and I are both Lakers fans.

For the first 42 minutes or so of the game, it looked like the Lakers were going to lose and lose big, and then the comeback happened.
I had never gone through such an emotional low and high from a sporting event before nor since. But in the end

What's yours?

I know, the Lakers never win the title that often.

 

[Himynameischris]

Anytime the pats are in the Superbowl....since the damn Dolphins don't get anywhere close to it, I've never been able to see them in a big game...so the most stressed out I've gotten is when our rivals get there.

NFC Championship 2009

Fuck my life

 

[Harry Potter]

Kings/Lakers. You know the one.

 

[MThanded]

Any NY Giants game. They are bipolar. Who knows what team comes out and which how many manningfaces we will see.

More specifically when the Giants went against the undefeated Patriots in the Super Bowl (Super Bowl XLII ). We really did not want to be "the team that the patriots finally beat to complete their undefeated season." Luckily we had some magic happen on the field. Patriots got owned twice by the Giants. Merry Christmas fools.

Copenhagen qualification to CL in 2010, the very last match against Rosenborg was just way too intense, was feeling sick enough to vomit. Seeing our manager and players just celebrating afterwards was so amazing

This year with Chelsea in CL finale against Bayern was pretty intense too, but hanging onto that lead against Barca the round before was probably more stressing.

This. I don't really get giving a shit about sporting events you're not participating in. Sorry.

Probably Oregon losing to Auburn in the 2011 BCS National Championship, a game which was far closer than most people seem to remember.

Oh well. Probably would've had to vacate it anyway.

Those poor Lakers

who knows where they'd be without the refs and an injured center on the opposing team

If you don't have ties to a certain team, you won't give a shit indeed.

 

[Harry Potter]

Yup, and all the bullshit that led up to it.

I root for teams it's just nothing compares to the stress (at least for me) of competing for myself.

That's fair enough.

I believe most people would agree with this.

98 NFC Championship. Damn you Anderson!

 

[samus i am]

As a skins fan from Norv Turner to RGIII was pretty tough.

Participate by betting, talk about adding stress to an otherwise "who gives a fuck" event.

 

[jbug617]

07 Super Bowl. It still hurts today.

 

[Major_Lazer]

That damn Santonio Holmes catch....we were so close. Now we have Skelton and Ryan fucking Lindley

Well I understand it, but I don't feel that way at all.

This and 2012 final game were nerve wracking. Always is when you are invested in one of the teams.

UNC vs Kansas, 2008 Final Four.

If I could've put my thoughts & feelings into action I'd be in jail right now.
The 05 championship I didn't even stress over despite the fact I didn't expect us to win.
The 09 championship was basically an inevitability. We were an absolute buzzsaw.

weirdly enough I stressed a lot over the USA vs Spain bball final in the 2008 Olympics. just had a sickening feeling we were gonna blow it but then Kobe saved America.

 

[nicoga3000]

Pretty much any summer Olympics. Not stressed so much as on edge and antsy.

World champion football in 2010. We were so close to winning. Fuck that octopus.

Boston Bruins, 2011 playoffs. The whole fucking thing. Three Game 7s, five overtime games, coming back from an 0-2 deficit in two different series, winning the Cup on the road in Game 7... I honestly don't know how I was able to stomach watching many of those games.

2004 ALCS, Sox/Yanks is up there as well.
