When a group of 80,000 rowdy Wisconsin Badgers college football fans began to sing at their Nebraska opponents, no one was expecting the fight song to turn out to be so funny!
Though not necessarily their "official" fight song, you have to admit it certainly brought up some feelings of nostalgia and happiness while listening to the stadium full of young people belting out the lyrics with all of their hearts!
Originally written and performed by The Foundations in 1968, this catchy and feel-good tune made it all the way to #3 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in the early months of 1969. As a single, people just couldn't stop moving and grooving to the beat, and when you hear this group of 80,000 fans jumping and singing to the happy-go-lucky lyrics, it's hard to believe that this video was filmed 43 years after the song initially came out!
There's nothing else in the world like watching a college football game on those electric filled nights. Whether it be the heat of summer slowly dissipating, or the cold nip of fall in the air, there's nothing more American than watching a good old fashioned college rivalry play out, all while the students are happily singing an amazingly catchy song from the better days of music!
