The World Cycling Championships were a big one recently, when Mads Pedersen made the breakaway the commentators were saying how he was lucky to be there and then he went and won the sprint! I was actually behind Iceland when they beat us in the Euros as well (traitor I know ) - and Chad le Clos beating Michael Phelps in the 2012 Olympics was a nice surprise as well!

Wigan Athletic winning the FA Cup Lincoln City reaching the quarterfinals of the FA Cup as a non-league team. Kelly Holmes middle distance double at the 2004 Olympics I would say that was unexpected. Of course 5000/1 Leicester City winning the Premier League.
