Apparently the Tigers hate Go get'em Tigers and that is why they no longer play it after wins. Nate Robertson talked about what a buzz kill it was to hear it after victories. I like the history of it and disagree, but ohh well. |

Gplimpton, I wonder how many people KNOW "Hello Detroit." I haven't heard it in 20 years, yet I think I remember most every word. When I was a DJ on the Boblo boat in 1984, we had to play it every time the boat approached the city. My visual cue was the Ambassador Bridge. As soon as we passed under it, I fired off Sammy Davis Jr. The song was extremely hokey, but I still like it. |

I thought it was: "There'll be joy in Tiger town, we'll sing you songs When the Tigers bring the pennant home where it belongs" Thats the version I have in .MP3. |

Yes! But who doesn't like 1968. If the Tigers stoped liking "take me out to the ball game" would they stop that too? |
