Most memorable for odd reasons !

I was talking to a friend in work about the most memorable City game and why?
Outside the obvious ones FA/League Cups, Scunthorpe away etc., I went for Plymouth in the Littlewoods Cup '87 I think?
In the days of the two-legged Cup games, we played first leg at home. Argyle were flying high at the time and we were in the doldrums.
Half-time in the first leg, we were 1 - 4 down, people had already left from a sparse crowd (Plymouth had brought quite a few) but we ended up winning 5 - 4.
Then decided to go for the second leg in Plymouth midweek. Not many City; maybe 75 of us (Annis was there lol). Home Park was rocking. We were battered on the pitch and only had one attack where David Giles (I think) scored.
We won 1 - 0 and couldn't believe it. Taking the piss really.
Then an interesting battle to get back to the car through some pretty irate Janners! lol. What a night
My question really outside the obvious what was your most memorable and why?
