The "frozen moment in time" for each team.
Almost every sports team (major 4 sports) has a 'flashbulb moment' that is synonymous with that team. For example, the Red Sox "moment" might be Carlton Fisk's "Wave". We have all seen the highlight a million times.
Now, lets keep winning titles out of the discussion as the "moment" for the purpose of this discussion, but pick out a team and give me that amazing moment that is etched in everyone's mind. Of course, some cities and teams have more than one.
A few that come to mind are:
49ers: Montana to Clark "catch"
Bulls: Jordan's winning shot vs Utah and the fistpumps in the air
Yankees: Berra jumping into the arms of Larsen

Scott Norwood missing the winning FG in the final seconds of Super Bowl XXV.
The first play of Super Bowl XVLIII as the ball sailed over Manning's head. That play was a sign of what kind of day the Broncos would have coming to them.
Fact: Bruno Mars, the halftime entertainment star, spent more time on the field than Peyton Manning.

Few outside of Terps fans will remember this, but it was the biggest shot of their run to the hoops title, and there isn't a close #2. It was the only time the team ever looked in trouble of losing a game.
