Best Sports Song...

Just curious ... excluding Tiger Rag and Eye of the Tiger, what do you think is the best arena/sports song. It doesn't have to be football-related.
Since I have always been a Queen fan, I have to go with We Will Rock You.
You?

We will rock you by Queen has been played at pretty much every american sporting event that has ever existed. So, you are probably right on with that song being tops of a sports song listing

AC/DC's Thunderstruck
No mention of sports anywhere in it, just a great stadium anthem that will jack up athletes and fans alike.
One I don't care for that's already been mentioned is Kenny Chesney's Boys of Fall. It's like he was hired by some private company to promote the sport of (high school) football, like it's not already highly popular. I see it as a money grab, whereas John Fogerty's Put Me In Coach feels much more organic.

Not many songs actually about sports

Musicians and jocks don't exactly mix well. I grew up a jock, and my son is an extremely talented musician, he has no interest in sports at all, and actually loathes meathead jocks. I've had to accept the fact that he will never love sports the way I do. My point is songs are written by musicians, and they don't have much respect for jocks. Outside of "centerfield" by John Fogerty, there's not much music out there actually about sports. Maybe the Super Bowl shuffle, L O L

Love this one for the Red Sox in the movie Fever Pitch by the Dropkick Murphy's when they finally broke the curse of Babe Ruth in 2004.
