Fantastic! What a magical summer!

The song was put together by WDIV in Detroit who owned the rights to Tiger broadcasts at the time. They did lots of cross promotional work, and had Boy George in for an interview and got him to say Bless you Boys. It ran a few times before games with out the song. Also Sparky Anderson's first name is George so it works that way also.

Herbie!!!!!! @1:04
I remember looking forward to that 5th inning and him coming out to and making that walk. So silly but fun. It really made some of the losses more tolerable.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Again and again.

@Minyaelda are you trying to tell me a cross-dressing singing tranny from England was a Tigers fan?

@Sage80 it was part of the song. Boy George was a Tiger's fan. This was at the height of "Karma Cameleon" (spelling?) The song "Bless You Boys" was a Detroit Tiger fan favorite first originated by a local Detroit News station. It went what we today call "viral"....everybody was singing it and buying the record. There were bumper stickers, posters, and T-shirts with "Bless You Boys" on them. A book was even written on the team called by that name.
