Epic Chokes
-
J.R. Hildebrand was one turn away from winning the Indianapolis 500 in 2011. He hit the outside wall on Turn 4 and Dan Wheldon passed him to win the race.
Giants led 31-10 at home with just over eight minutes remaining in the game. The Eagles scored three straight touchdowns to tie the score. After the Eagles forced a punt DeSean Jackson returned Matt Dodge's punt for a touchdown as time expired to give the Eagles an improbable 38-31 win. The Eagles go to the playoffs while the Giants sit at home.

A few others:
Cubs.....chokers on two occasions....let a series lead fall apart in 1984 then about 20 years later the Bartman series.
Red Sox....another epic choker team....1978 lost like a 10 game lead with very few games left...then Bucky Dent blasts them out of the playoffs
Greg Norman, 1996 Masters blows a big lead
Jackie Smith drops a pass that may have given the Cowboys a SB win over the Steelers
Gary Anderson....1998 Vikings, misses a chip shot FG that would have sealed a win over the Falcons and put them in the Super Bowl....Atlanta comes back to win.
Ravens...2011? playoff. Billy Cundiff misses chip shot FG, then Lee Evans drops ball that would have won it for them.
Billy Cundiff misses chip shot FG
Billy Cundiff missing a chip shot? Unheard of?! Lol

Dave Chappelle quits TV show and goes to Africa
was not a choke either. according to Chappelle it was prompted by execs demanding he dress in drag and do gay skits as well as pressure from oprah and a call from Barack just before his first election...black elitists felt he was bad negro roll model at the time--my words, not verbatim but same meaning.

The 2007 ALCS hurt my soul. Johnathon Papalbon was the reason we lost that series.
I'd also think our falling to Cincy last game of the regular season 2007 when all Crennel had to do was NOT let Anderson toss the ball 35+ times a game would also
rank up there for me.

Remember the time in 1998 when Bobby Boucher showed up at halftime and the Mud Dogs won the Bourbon Bowl?
They were down 27-0 at the half to the Cougars and won 30-27

The biggest choke I've ever seen in the playoffs live was Tony Romo botching the snap in the '06 wild card game. The Cowboys had a 19 yard FG to win the game and Romo just straight up mishandled a perfect snap.
