I always felt that Ride of the Valkyries is underutilized in sports, and that Billy Wagner in particular was crazy not to use it.

If I played for the Tigers, "Wu-Tang Clan Ain't Nothin' To Fuck Wit" would absolutely be my walk-up music. Otherwise, I'd need to think about it some.

I'd change it all the time. Today would probably be Banana Phone.

If I had to pick one I'd like, it would probs be rap and I won't share it here because you guys will be like "oh my God is that music I made it through 10 seconds here here's some folk, appreciate it, it's deep".

I'd use the live version of "Primary" by The Cure from their concert video "The Cure in Orange".

Actually, I'd be pleased if they had 4'33" on a continuous loop for the duration of the game. And they should turn the volume down too.

Bobby Womack; very nice, test.

Since I am the world's forgotten boy, you know, the one who searches and destroys, this is the tune for me:



Baby, detonate for me

(But I would change all the time. Temptations, Graham Parker, Dave Edmunds, Iggy, Joy Division, Tower of Power, Quicksilver, and Boz)

Might have actually answered this in an old "The Jazz Thread" thread.

The opening handclaps by Pat Metheny Group in The First Circle.

If only to hear a stadium full of people attempting 22/8 time.

Grape Jam was your second choice, right?

Of course. But it was a close call between that and Jim Schoenfeld's rendition of All Along The Watchtower.

Well Hollywood Hogan had the best with Voodoo Child. Ric Flair had the 2nd best with Also Sprach Zarathustra / Thus Spoke Zarathustra.

So I'd probably have to go with O Fortuna (Carmina Burana). That shit gets me pumped each and every time. And hey! The lyrics are in Latin too! (Just learned that.)

Some might call that a ham-handed attempt at using the youtube tags.

wut?

Can't speak for the entire league, but Mets & Yanks have had it for many years.

Mike Piazza used the opening riffs of Iron Maiden's "The Prisoner", which was always a fave of mine.

In 2000, with the Mariners, A-Rod used "Who Let the Dogs Out".

It all makes sense now...
