For the sake of the argument, you get to arrive up to 24 hours before the event starts and leave up to 24 hours after it ends.
Tough to choose, but I think it would be interesting to see what the heck was going on with the dancing plague of 1518.

The start of the universe. The big bang, or even what came before that. The big dinner and a movie.
24 hours before the beginning of time, there was oldGregg. And oldGregg said, “This is lit”, and it was.
Given that time itself began at the Big Bang, would you get stuck there forever? I’m not familiar with the laws of “what if” scenario physics
The big bang, especially if I can record it (don’t think that counts as interacting, it’s just a more trustworthy version of the recording it into my memory)
Especially since this means we’d get the conditions before it
Schrodinger would agree with you.
I wanna witness the Roman who graffitied about being gay in the bathroom stall - just to see the kind of man they were.
Gay, probably.
An astute observation
Normandy Beach, D-Day. You read about the scale, but to see it in person…
I’d probably choose something for entertainment. Maybe see what a Shakespeare show at the Globe was really like (extremely chaotic from what I’ve read)
Or see Hendrix play live at Woodstock!
That makes me sound a bit shallow maybe - there’s a lot of questions I have about what early Christianity was like before the Catholic church came on the scene, what sort of a ruler Richard III was, similar sorts of dry questions… But given the choice I’d probably want some rowdy entertainment
I’d like to see the asteroid that finished off the dinos and Mount Vesuvius erupting.
Would like to witness the Ides of March, from the beginning of the day till the end.
Y’all wanna watch some historical events that a lot of other people have already watched, I just wanna go back and watch my own birth. I mean, who has ever witnessed their own birth? That’s gotta be a historical first, right? Also I can see if my parents are actually my birth parents or if they are adoptive parents which would explain why they are so shitty.
The fall of the Colossus of Rhodes or the Assassination of Julius Caesar.
the death and or funeral of ghengis khan
Jesus Christ and the sermon on the mount, specifically the sharing of fishes and loaves of bread.
I wanna see superman land in Kansas
@MariaRomanov the buddh’s enlightenment
The construction of the pyramids in Egypt.
