At the Frozen Four a few years ago (Cincinnati?), the repeated playing of this
song really annoyed me in the semi-final.  I counted during the final game and
the celebration afterward - the final tally was something like 18 times!!!  It
is kind of a catchy tune, and I could handle it for the first 10 or 15 times,
but 18 was just plain excessive!!!  And this didn't even include the pep rally
outside the arena before the game.
 
I had nightmares for weeks....  I would wake up screaming and found myself
humming "Hail to the Victors" for no apparent reason.  I've gotten over it now,
but it took some time.  I can point you to a good therapist/lawyer specializing
in mental trauma cases....   ;-)   ;-)
 
Thank you, UMaine, for beating Michigan.  I am looking forward to a less
stressful time in Providence, knowing that the Michigan >>band<< won't be
there.
