In May, earlier this year, in front of a worldwide audience of 250 million, the Koenigsegg CCX broke the world’s record and became the Guiness Book of World Records world’s fastest production car ever. Koenigsegg, the world’s fastest production car was unveiled as led by the Pretorian guard of Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas last night. I believe the runner-up deserves an honorable mention.Koenigsegg CCX, World’s Fastest Production Car Unveiled at Exotic Cars at Caesars Palace, Its First and Sole Exclusive Dealer in the U.S. I wrote in Part 1 of this post that Jock Jams was the greatest moment in the marriage of music and sports. Part 1 is similar to Part 2, but there is one major difference. This video contains the fabled Rock and Roll Part 1 before Part 2. But, hey, don’t let that keep you from enjoying this live performances of Rock and Roll. Suffice it to say that many teams no longer play the song during their events and if they do then it’s usually a cover version. I won’t go into the details, but it turned out that Gary Glitter is a freak. We literally did the wave over and over again by ourselves until we finally got our entire section standing up.

Hands down one of the most recognizable songs you’ve ever drunkenly swayed back and forth to. Rock and Roll Part 2 (The Hey Song) by Gary Glitter (1972)–This tune has been an institution of sports culture since it first played at a Colorado Rockies game in the late 70s.

The Old Ballgame by Ray Castoldi–Ray Castoldi tickles the organ keys for the New York Knicks, the New York Rangers, and the New York Mets. You’re moving into a land of both BASS and RHYME CAPABILITY, of GRINDS and AROUSALS you’ve just crossed over into the TWILIGHT ZONE BY 2 UNLIMITED.ġ9. Beyond it is another dimension: a dimension of SOUND, a dimension of SWEAT, a dimesion of BOOTY.
