Cheer Culture

“Sirius” by The Alan Parsons Project (1982) is the actual, real starting-lineup entrance song — chosen by PA announcer Tommy Edwards after hearing it in a movie theater — and has been used before every home game since the Michael Jordan era, widely regarded as the most famous player-introduction tradition in American sports.
