Songs that need to be banned from sports
photo. GwenStefani.comAt least twice during Pacers/Magic, I’ve heard Gwen Stefani’s “Sweet Escape” cranking through the Conseco Fieldhouse speakers. But considering I’ve also heard C&C Music Factory and “Cotton-Eye Joe” during Pacers’ games, that’s hardly the worst. Clearly, though, NBA arenas need an overhaul on their music selections.
What is one song you’d be happy to never hear again at a sports game?

Rock and Roll, Part 2 by Gary Glitter. Not only is that dumb ass song worn the fuck out, it was written by a well documented pedophile.

Ever Raptor’s home game they play the into to “Carwash” at least twice a quarter. Not sure why they don’t update thier music selection with some better beats.

That one and anything from Soulja boy. I hope Soulja Boy chokes himself to death while masturbating. His music is THAT bad.

Van Halen – Jump at the opening tip…its just too blatantly obvious. Its a good song, but something about Van Halen and basketball doesn’t work for me…

whats the point of playing that song if u have to bleep every other word. if they ran just the beat that would be a different story.

@tim
I agree completely… Van Halen – Jump is so played out, especially when they use it for jump balls too. Why not switch up with Kris Kross or even that techno song by The Movement.
Also in Detroit, can Kid Rock just go away already? As a Pistons fan, I cannot stand that douchebag.
