I don't really like to use the B-word around events, but what events didn't drive you nuts?
For me the cosmic events are always the most interesting Annihilation, Annihilation: Conquest, The Thanos Imperative, and of course infinity Gauntlet/War/Maybe Crusade.
As for the non cosmic events I really liked Dark Reign (I know a lot probably don't and it had a dumb ending) putting a guy who's one third psychopath, one third business man, and one third goof-ball villain in charge of basically everything. I liked it because it didn't seem like just a villain in charge (eg Lex as president which is I'm sure what inspired them to do this in the first place) but a guy whose genuine desire to do good was clouded by first his psychoses and second by his inferiority complex. Plus Bullseye and Hawkeye was fun.
Civil War Wasn't bad either (aside of course from the equally bad ending), and was my impetus for getting into Cap. I mean didn't we always know Tony Stark was a bit of Neo-con?
Children's Crusade was good, though whether it counts as an event is questionable. Anything to get some young avengers.
Honorable mentions
Planet Hulk, Second Coming, House of M
I have not yet read age of apocalypse, galactic storm, Onslaught Saga
Oh and I think Fear Itself was the worst event so far.
