Last week the fans on AP voted on "Which Chiefs Moment Hurt the Worst?" and chose the 1995 season in which a kicker who shall not be named missed three field goals (it felt like five).

After voting, Matt_Grbac and others made this request:

If you're gonna do a post like this you better back it up with a "favorite Chiefs moment" post.  Don't leave us with these terrible bookmarks of Chiefs history.

So, which is the proudest milestone in recent history?
