I 92's Random Sports Trivia #2

  • Ironman92
    In late season 1995 Cal Ripken thrilled us by playing in his 2131st career game. Just about every baseball fan alive was watching ESPN that night......in the middle of the 5th inning he was given a 22 minute standing ovation by the crowd as he circled the entire playing field giving high fives to much of the front row.......

    What song was being played as he was given the ovation and circling the field for high fives?

  • Ironman92
    Not even close.....that song didn't reappear until the early 2000's
  • darbypitcher22
    Then I have no idea and I'm not going to youtube to cheat...

    Oh wait, MLB is a bunch of nazis and removed all of their videos from youtube

    Whitney Houston-

    Beats me, I know it's not "Where do broken hearts go" or "I wanna dance with somebody"
  • DaBrowns41
    I'm going to guess Springsteen lol.
  • killdeer
    Based on the above clues,
    Whitney Houston..."One Moment in Time"...??

    I like the mental picture of him trotting around Camden Yards to Sabbath's "Iron Man" though...really funny!
