Found it on reddit compsci but thought it'd be more appropriate here.

The ranking on the bottom is interesting:

Microsoft Research 20.2

Carnegie Mellon University 19.77

University of Washington 14.67

Stanford University 12.43

IBM Research 9.7

Cornell University 9.62

University of California Berkeley 8.28

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign 8.0

University of Alberta 7.14

University of British Columbia 7.0

Yahoo! Research 6.82

AT&T Laboratories 6.58

University of Toronto 6.33

Massachusetts Institute of Technology 5.53

University of Massachusetts Amherst 4.92

It seems that most of the papers are hidden behind ACM's paywall. Of the ones that were part of my limited, random sample at least.
just google the papers, or look up in google scholar :-)

In most cases, the authors would have uploaded it on their webpage.

Awesome! would have been even better if there were SIGCOMM,SIGMETRICS were included.
Here are the ones for SIGCOMM: http://www.sigcomm.org/awards/best-paper-award It looks like there's only 3 years of them so it would be easy to add.

SIGMETRICS seems to have only a few years of awards as well. But there is no central list of them.

haha. is there someone out there who believes you get an education in these subjects by reading those papers that won best paper awards?
