Also...

banners for musicians? :L

Ridiculous. Especially when that musician isn't even from your city... or country for that matter. Now if the Devils want to hang a Bon Jovi banner.... oh wait, no... it's still stupid.


True.

I don't want to be Misunderstood. While I don't think they are going to Runaway with the division this year, I have to think that their fans are going to Keep The Faith, and I hope they all just Have A Nice Day.

Always.

Damn, now I just want to Runaway.

It seems fitting because the ACC has consistently played the shittiest/goofiest music known to mankind during games -- The Jeffersons Theme song; Welcome Back Kotter; the organist jamming along to Saga's, Wind Him Up.

And yes, Justin Bieber really should have gotten the nod first.

Don't they play the Jeffersons theme for the promotion where they move someone in the shitty seats to the front row ("Movin' On Up") and the Welcome Back Kotter theme when they show on the big screen all of the Leafs alumni that are attending the game? I mean it's still a little goofy and corny but it's not like they're just playing them for fun or because they think they're popular songs with the crowd.

I actually had no idea why they used to play the Jeffersons theme song; learn something new each day I guess. Ok though, fair enough point, but the organ player jamming to Saga and Toto is the most ridiculous thing I've heard. If he was playing those songs without the original recordings providing the groove, I'd probably be cool with it. Reminds me of Natalie Cole doing a duet with her dead dad...only worse.

You're the first person to defend the ACC music....congrats!

But yet it's only crackingly funny when it happens in Toronto? :noidea:

I am in favor. Because it could be Nickelback, and I think we can all agree that idea is far worse.


I just wonder what the banner is actually going to say....

The Ice Capades and RV shows have brought in lots of revenue; perhaps they should get a banner, too?

So Flames fans should make the trek north and give edmonton a ring of hono(u)r? You know, a yellow ring in the snowbank around Rexall Place.

In that vein, when does this guy get a banner...

Found another one (the Palace of Auburn Hills in suburban Detroit):

Also, this banner is incorrect. There are only 4 sellouts in Bon Jovi. :drum:
