My grandad and dad were both Landry fans. Big time. Dad was around when Jones fired him. He died shortly thereafter.
When Landry was inducted into the ring of honor, Dad and Grandad were heavy on my mind. The tears just started rolling out of my eyes. There was no stopping them. My daughters were both in their teens and neither had seen me cry before. I was embarrassed and happy at the same time.

Well maybe not that it impressed me as much as how it made an impression on me.......
Watching the Twin Towers in NY being hit, burning and falling.
I felt so helpless at the time but may faith in America was renewed by the act of those cowards.

Jack Ruby shooting Lee Harvey Oswald.
I have several and in no uncertain order
The Branch Davidian compound burning
The Oklahoma City bombing
The news about the ending of the Viet Nam war (just sticks out in my mind, I was a little kid.)
Watching the airplane crash in to the World Trade Center.
I thought 9/11 was the end of the world. I had my kids baptised.

The Apollo / Soyuz link up in space. I would have never believed that could happen during the Cold War.

Most of those already mentioned plus:
First space shuttle landing.
US hockey beating the Ruskies in 1980 Olympics.
Nixon's resignation speech.
Johnson announcing he would not run for re-election in 1968. Didn't mean much to me cause I was still a kid, but I remember how stunned my Dad was. He was a big Johnson man and nobody saw that one coming.
Speaking of '68, the Chicago riots stand out.
I'm sure I'll think of more later.

Minor I suppose to some of the stuff mentioned here, but the Preakness and Barbaro's leg breaking. That haunts me to this day.

the day the space shuttle disentagrated after launching, it was my day off and i was home ironing clothes
the day the federal building was bombed by mcvay, i was at work at my desk and had the tv on watching as the news alert came on
9/11 i was on the tread mill and watching cbs news and saw it happen, had to sit down and call my husband at work, called my daughter at college, they cancelled classes, finally had to go to town to work, and lee greenwoods song about proud to be an american came on, and i just started bawling. i remember my son calling from high school checking in and to make sure everything was all right.....
its odd you can remember some the details during something like that......but i cant find my keys after i just put them down...
