Please identify a sports arena song for me.
No words, just chanting that sounds like "whoa whoa whoa WHOA whoa, whoa whoa whoa WHOA WHOA WHOA whoa, whoa whoa whoa WHOA whoa."

This is extremely prominent in hockey arenas, but I've heard it on other sportscasts as well.

Anyone have any idea what this annoying, insipid song is?

1. It's kinda hard to get the melody from just 'whoa whoa whoa', y'know?
:shrug:

8. I know. I should have specified that
it's fans who chant the "whoa"'s, and that it's not part of that wretched song.

Whether it's whoa or ole or whatever.

15. I don't generally mind chanting at sports arenas, but
this one in particular - which was just identified as Kernkraft 400 by Zombie Nation - makes me want to throw up directly on the head of the stadium guy playing it.

17. Yeah... I can understand having one song you can't stand.
I don't have one... but I can understand that more than hating all chanting at arenas.

What sport would be left to enjoy if you didn't like chanting? Golf? Tennis? Pool? Darts? Figure skating? I can't think of very many (not any good ones anyway ;)).

6. Nope, that one has everyone yelling "HEY!"
However, I hate this one just as much.

11. Never mind, just looked it up on Wikipedia. Still confused, too.
How this could be famous, or even liked, is well beyond my mortal comprehension.

13. It's been beating the the holy heebus fuckbucket out of me for an entire hockey season.
I hate it so much that it almost makes me wish all games ended in 0-0 ties. I race to mute my DVR or TV every time someone scores.
