[@ZhangtheGreat]

Bartman's "mistake" shouldn't be on here. That was not a mistake. Fans will reach for a foul ball if it's coming toward them, and if the ball is in the stands, it's fair game for the fans to catch it. Instead, Zidane's headbutt should be up high. That happened in the World Cup final, and it cost France a World Cup championship.

[@brianarbenz1329]

Besides that, it would have been just the second out had the ball been caught, and the Cubs gave up multiple runs in the rest of the inning. So the Bartman mishap was not as crucial to knocking the team out of the series as many think.

[@lunixcaptain]

Um... he had no right to the ball and it became a life-threatening situation that was very highly publicized.

[@delwinalvarez8086]

​​@lunixcaptain why was he the only one singled out? A bunch of fans went for the ball. And no right? This is something that happens in games all the time

[@noahharris6724]

Thank you so much for including the 5th Down game on the list. I feel like it gets overlooked a lot when discussing the greatest blunders in sports. However, you all should have included Game 6 of the 1985 World Series.

[@melissagrant4178]

What happens during that world serise

[@noahharris6724]

@melissagrant4178 In game 6 of the series, the St. Louis Cardinals were leading the Kansas City Royals 3 games to 2. In the bottom of the 9th inning, the Cardinals had 1 to 0 lead and were 3 outs away from winning the series. The first batter for the Royals hit a chopper into play. The Cardinals fielded it and got it to first base before the runner reached, but the umpire, whose view of the play was obscured, incorrectly ruled the runner safe. The Cardinals proceeded to collapse, and the Royals went on to win the series in 7 games.

[@arizonawrestlinginterviews1040]

​@@noahharris6724 That call was Angel Hernandez level bad

[@joermnyc]

Buckner is so infamous one of the PS2 MVP Baseball games had the commentary line “Shades of Bill Buckner” if a ball got past a first baseman (those games had a TON of dialog for the time. Play a game at Shea, the dialog would randomly be interrupted by a loud jet flying overhead.)

[@lp-xl9ld]

Early in the 1987cseason, the Red Sox came to Shea Stadium for an exhibition game. Buckner was introduced and got a standing ovation from the Mets fans ( including yours truly)

[@jalenbarnes7888]

Steve Bartman should NOT be on this list. -Even without all the fans there, Alou still might not have caught the ball. -Prior on the same at bat threw a wild pitch which allowed the batter to get on 1st (which should have been a red flag to the pitching staff he was wearing down) -2 batters later, they could have gotten out of the inning on a double play, if their all-star Shortstop didn't pick a horrible time to bobble the ball on the hit. -And later in the inning, a Marlins player who had been terrible all NLCS got a 3-run RBI to basically ice the game Bartman isn't the reason the Cubs failed to execute when it mattered the most.

[@zaxko86]

I think any fan that seen a baseball heading towards them would try to grab it to remember that day. I know I would without thinking. He acted in the moment. If someone else was sitting there I believe they would of done the same thing.

[@bigmetroidfan911]

I remember watching the NCAA national championship game between Michigan and North Carolina when Chris Webber called a time out late in the game. The ref did miss the traveling.

Wilson's Super Bowl interception and Carrol's terrible call belongs on this list.

[@marcus813]

I remember hearing about that "5th down" game at the time it went down. That Colorado team sure lived a charmed life in 1990! The Buffaloes managed to win a piece of the national title even with a tie (Tennessee in the Pigskin Classic in Anaheim) and a loss (at Big Ten co-champ Illinois) while Georgia Tech never lost (tied at UNC).

I don't follow football but even I remember that game. A classic case of D'oh!

[@arizonawrestlinginterviews1040]

It happened again this past season in the NFL on a Monday night game between Denver and Buffalo. The Bills held a 22-21 lead with 35 seconds remaining, but gave up 28 yards on a pass interference call. The Broncos have no timeouts remaining and have to hurry to the line to get the FG attempt off, which they do, but miss on a 41-yard attempt by Will Lutz. But the Bills were flagged for 12 men on the field, giving the Broncos a 36-yard 2nd attempt, which they capitalized on.

[@desyncer]

My favorite part of that is they had all offseason to stew on their mistake. Then the very first game of the next season, they repeated the mistake of having too many men on the field to overturn a missed field goal that turned into a made field goal that lost them the game.

[@osirisb5492]

Wide right. Not giving marshawn lynch the ball in the Super bowl vs Patriots. Browns RB fumbling on near the goal line and Broncos recovering the ball. Miracle at the Meadowlands part 1 and 2.

[@TMC1982Part2]

18:17: Bill Buckner's error did not allow the Mets to eventually win the 1986 World Series. I don't know why people such as those at WatchMojo like to use revisionist history like that. For one thing, it wasn't Bill Buckner's fault that in Game 6, the Red Sox ultimately blew a three run lead despite previously needing just one more out to win the game and the World Series. That's on the pitchers, Calvin Schiraldi and Bob Stanley. Secondly, even had Buckner cleanly fielded the ball, the game still would've been tied going into the top of the 11th inning and who knows what would've happened after that? And are we forgetting that in Game 7, the Red Sox actually had a 3-0 lead going into the bottom of the sixth inning? The Mets of course, managed to again, rally back and win the game 8-5, but it wasn't like the Red Sox were down for the count after Bill Buckner's error from the previous game. How come nobody wants to blame the Red Sox's relief pitching (particularly, Calvin Schiraldi, who was the losing pitcher in Game 7 and was the losing pitcher in three games in the 1986 World Series for the Red Sox) and their manager, John McNamara, who kept Buckner in there late in Game 6 (he during the postseason, would normally replaced Buckner at first base with Dave Stapleton) despite knowing that he was injured his mobility was compromised.

[@mrhoffame]

Before I even watch 1 SECOND OF THIS VIDEO.....I'm just gonna shout..... BEAST MODE!!!!!!!

[@YSRHuey]

I’d say this list needs a redo. Games where the team won should be lower, Mistakes that lead to actual physical issues or trauma should be higher. Bill Buckner might’ve messed up, but he got to live A LIFE after his. Escobar’s life was taken OVER A GAME. I’d say that’s more shocking but that’s just me

[@jenniferferguson1517]

[@daevydjae]

That whole treatment of Steve Bartman was asinine. Trying to blame him on the Cubs eventual collapse, losing 2 home games to lose the series, is why Chicago is one of the worst cities in America.

I worked as a sports reporter for newspapers for 12 years and I saw a player in the Indiana high school basketball final 4 (the greatest show in U.S. high school basketball) on Marion High School's team call time out when his team tied the game on a basket with 2 seconds left. There was no need for a time out, but he thought his team was down by 1 point. The opposing team, Broad Ripple High School of Indianapolis (David Letterman's old school, btw) had no time outs left and the final 2 seconds would have ticked off and the game gone into overtime, but a free time out was given them via the Marion player's mistake, and when they came out, Broad Ripple hit a 57-foot shot (17.4 meters) to win the game. Marion was the great powerhouse in Indiana boys basketball, winning five state titles between 1975 and 1987, by far the greatest run by any high school boys team in the state's history. But that game in 1980 was the one that got away.

You know, during the play Armando's back was completely away so I don't think he knew at first the call was blown and hence why he didn't seem too upset...as he probably figured the runner beat the throw fair and square and though it was cool he at least got this chance. One thing's for sure, his first baseman's reaction was like, "Oh why couldn't I have picked it up quicker and/or thrown it a little harder!?!?"

Bartman is not an issue in that game. Fans reach for balls all the time. The cubs collapsing after this is the cause of the loss. Were they so "fragile" as professionals and as a team that one fan could "break" them in this way? If they were, then that is one more reason bartman was not the issue.

[@familyoftacticaldroids309]

I'm just thinking of the guy from the Chiefs who ran the wrong way during the latest Super Bowl. It didn't cost them, but it could've very well had made them lose the game. I didn't even care about the game (tbh, not a fan of US football or any sport aside from robot combat in general), but I'm glad I stayed in the room for that game because THAT made me laugh. And the Chiefs player watching who stood up and began to run from the sidelines with his hands up like "YOU IDIOT I WILL KILL YOU!".

[@robbates8874]

I’ll disagree about Leon Lett’s Superbowl gaffe… Cowboys were ahead and still won. (Plus, the fact that Don Bebe slapped the ball out of Lett’s hand…that showed Bebe’s heart, passion, and fight.
