Sports scene that gives you the most goose bumps

[Jim Schue]

Never understood the silliness surrounding "Rudy." I think a few too many Catholics overrate this one.

 

My pick was "Hoosiers." But my moment isn't so much when he hits the shot, but when they're in the TO beforehand and Jimmy says, "I'll make it." It's not like you didn't know what was coming after that ...

I voted for Jim Morris, but another one that always gets me is the no-hitter by Billy Chappel (Kevin Costner) in For the Love of the Game.

Rudy......Rudy......Rudy

I guess the playing catch scene isn't what I'd call a goosebump scene, it's a "I'm about to cry" kind of scene. I definitely think it's the best scene on this list, but I get goosebumps when Rudy runs onto the field. When they start to carry him off is even better and gets me every time.

Mine is the last scene from Invincible. When they beat the Giants at the end. thats probably my favorite sports movie for some reason. We are Marshall is a pretty powerful movie. My favorite scene is when they have all the people at the window when the kid was talking to the president or ad.

I voted something else:

 

At the end of of Bagger Vance when he moves the twig and the ball moves,the Caddy tells him that no one has to know and he says,"I'll know."

It may be a comedy, but when Ricky Vaughn comes in from the bull pen to face Haywood in the top of the 9th, I still get goose bumps.

My favorite part is Randy Quaid talking trash, not sure if that was part 1 or 2:lol:

Definitely Rudy. Not when he takes the field, but when they carry him off.

Basketball was such a huge part of my upbringing. I spent a lot of time playing by myself and emulating players. I also played for a small school so I picked the Jimmy Chitwood game winner coming around the picket fence. He didnt get caught watching the paint dry either.

 

Outside of that I think this could be 2nd. Gives me chills everytime I watch it.

''Wild thing, you make my butt sting":lol:

I voted for Rudy.

 

Another favorite not listed was in Facing the Giants. When the kicker's dad stands up in the end zone. If you've seen it, you understand. Gives me chills.

I can pull a tear out of my eye by getting caught up in these type of movies all the time.

 

Happend to me again last week while watching Rocky II.

 

Rudy probably gets my vote for this thread.

 

It is something about success stories of those always beating the odds that can choke me up all the time. Similar to "Pursuit of Happiness" when he lands the job at the end of the movie.

Let that be a lesson King, the next time we play skins at our course. Don't make me have to call it on you.

 

 

I voted for Roy Hobbs' home run. I love that movie.

Also, there was a movie about a Jamaican bob sled team a few years ago that had a great ending, but I can't remember the name of it.
