You must be sitting in the one section of the arena that is annoyed by the song. As a seasonticketholder and frequent attendee, everytime I'm there the crowd generally loves the song. Even those who aren't enthralled tend to find it humorous that everyone else sings along/enjoys it so much.
You don't have to like the song because I live, er, post here. In fact there are a bunch of people that don't like my stuff. It's impossible to please everyone so Kev and I just do what we do. I have observed the crowd 'geting into it' when the song plays. I think that is cool. It's a personal touch to the other canned stuff that they play. Some games I agree it is played too much. Others I wonder why they don't push the button more. The Rockets are finding the right balance and judging by the crowd response they are doing a fine job.
You must be sitting in the visitor's section then. Actually, my boy got me season tix behind the Rox bench a few rows back, and I haven't missed a game yet. And unless we're winning the game, the song does little to stir anyone's emotions around me (they're all so used to it). They kinda sit there in silence when its playing so loud, and yet we're still losing the game. Next time you're at a game, listen for the echo.
I personally like the song. It has a rhyme to it..kinda like when ShaQ was at Orlando. Everytime he scored, the announcers would say his name with a lag to it... it went something like .. SHAQUILLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ONEALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL it would last like 6 seconds.....
Karl Malone already has a song: "Everybody was Kung Fu fighting ..." John Stockton too: "I get knocked down, but I get up again ..."
looks like a troll, smells like a troll, acts like a troll... first A Train shoots down your initial assumption with facts.. so now you resort to personal attacks.....pathetic
