Never been there, but it would be awesome to see and hear the faithful sing You Will Never Walk Alone. It would also be an interesting experience to see a game in Azteca Stadium In Mexico City with over 100,000 fans(there is a moat around the field to keep fans off the pitch) or similar stadiums in Brazil and Argentina.

I saw a game in the Estadio Atahualpa in Quito Ecuador (named after an Inca king). Quito is at very high altitude. Players and refs came on to the field though tunnels, and the fans of the opposing teams were seperated by fences; people were throwing garbage at each other and on the field.

How about a football game at Ann Arbor Michigan or Notre Dame?

It would be cool to see a heavyweight championship fight at MSG, or maybe in Kinshasha (Rumble in the Jungle II).

I missed an opportunity to see a friendly a few years ago in the Olympic Stadium in Berlin between GER and POR. I still regret not going to that game.

This is a cool site:
