In 1951, Toronto's Bill Barilko scored an OT goal to win the Stanley Cup for the Maple Leafs.

In 2025, the LA Kings rebounded from giving up two quick goals to score the game winner with 41 seconds left to beat the Edmonton Oilers.

In 1980, Rosie Ruiz crossed the finish line at the Boston Marathon and was crowned the winner of the women's race. Eight days later she was stripped of her title after it was discovered she jumped into the race towards the end.
