Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 As it's more a trivial / general interest question, I'll bury it here in the OTW forum. Having grown up watching AFL games on the NBC affiliate, it seemed like we were always catching Oakland Raiders games as part of the station's schedule. Anyone remember that brass band fanfare that was always played as the Raiders kicked off following a score? It was so often heard that some wiseass was always imitating it when we were playing touch football. Also remembered (but not missed 🤨) is the Houston Oiler fight song, which would manage to show up during broadcasts. Are there War Memorial Stadium traditions you recall, aside from BYOB in the stands? That Houston song: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even know that fan group existed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
