Anyone Ever Hit a Huge Longshot???

HAd Scott McCarron at 60-1 for winner in the Bellsouth Classic 2 years ago. I had 25 on it and paid me $1500.00. I also have hit a couple 5 or 6 baseball parlays for between 600 and 1000. I was sooo happy those nights.
I had a 7 dollar baseball parlay that paid 520 bucks one time. Probably the biggest shot I've ever had.

In 98 I had the Falcons at 75 to 1 to win NFC chmapionship and 125:1 to win Superbowl. I hit the 75 TO 1! thanks to Gary Anderson!
This year I too had the Halos at 60 to 1 but a small play and am hoping my 300 to 1 on the Mighty Ducks or 100 to 1 on ASU to win ncaa championship hits!!! You never know, the stars are alligned strange this year anything may happen!

Standardbred's at Greenwood racetrack when it was still around (still miss it btw. My track now is Flamboro but Greenwood was better and Woodbine sucks for harness). Anyways I digress.
Race was some kind of 2YO Fillies Ontario Sires Stakes and some clown(s) bet $30,000 to show on an undefeated trotter. I couldn't believe my eyes. Sure the horse looked good but it was after all, 2 YO trotting fillies who break stride more often than Ozzie and Sharon Osbourne swear.
The horse I liked for 2nd behind the big favorite was 50/1 (which of course is irrelevant since the favorite was like 1/10), but it only had $5 to show on it when I had bet it. So I put $100 to show myself on it. My hunch was that I would get back $105 on a $2.10 payout but it was worth a shot just in case the fave screwed up. Sure enough the favorite broke from the gate and continued breaking eventually pulling up. My horse was one of only 3 to stay on stride and finished 2nd. It paid $132 to show. So for my $100 show ticket I got back almost 7 dimes
.
As for sports, last year I won on Shigeki Maruyama at 100-1 for $50.
