The FIFA World Cup and the Summer Olympics come up top of the Bleacher Report's Greatest Sporting Events list. We assume they recommend you see these major events live, as these two are the top most popular sporting events watched, with billions of viewers, probably including you.
They said they searched the world in search of the greatest events, but a look down the list will find plenty of US-based events that would be of little interest to those living elsewhere. This was also the case for Robert Tuchman's list of the 100 Sporting Events You Must See Live. That doesn't stop you from finding inspiration in this list for events that you can put on your ultimate sporting bucket list, like my top 10 sports to see.
