BB Final: UL (7) vs Tulane (4)

[CajunStros]

A few things:

The J. Geils Song is called Freeze Frame. But it was a good thought.

The team calls him "Big Thunder."

Pitchers, like hitters, choose their music. However, in the top of the ninth if the Cajuns lead, they're playing the fight song (which I think should never be played at a baseball game, but that's just me.)

"Thunderstruck" is a good choice...as is "Fire" by the Crazy World of Arthur Brown.

That settles it. Get the fight song out of baseball games and somebody plug in their iPhone and queue up Thunderstruck to start the top of the ninth inning.

i admit it is kinda weird to hear the fight song at a baseball game...but i would rather hear that then what they play to our Western neighboring state "deep in the heart of texas".

i was unaware that pitchers choose warm up songs. glad that someone has inside scoop on stuff like that.

i havent been to many other college stadiums for baseball games...but i cant imagine others use the sound bites like we do for certain events. "Bull Durham" clips are always amazing and other such clips bring a nice comedic atmosphere to the event.

Gray sleeveless pinstripes with black accents. My favorite of all the uniforms.

The New Orleans Advocate had nice photo of them.

I thought the team played a prank on Evan Powell about his song, but I heard he actually picked it.
Funny, but not funny. I don't see how anyone can get pumped up to "My lip gloss is poppin'"...haha

Thunderstruck would be a great 9th inning song when Bazar comes in. Thunder cracking as he walks to the mound and everybody yelling "Thunder ah ah ah ..." in unison. Could be magical.

How do we get this done?

[Bankruptcyman]

In the Live version there are several thunder claps before they start the guitar intro. That would worth going to the game just to see Big Thunder come out to that song and the crowd reaction.

This really shows how awful all the Thunder and Lightning songs are save for just a few.
