well it was in in the first game in 1990 and it was san antonio and i think they were playing the lakers but i knew that the that the it's a great question because the story is hilarious i i i knew the song was i was on the road somewhere and i knew the song was going to play for the very first time on television so i found a sports bar and i was by myself on the road went in the sports bar with all the tv uh tvs you know tiny tvs back then

and the bar is full and people are watching and all of a sudden, you know, it's, it had the, it was.

It had like the big opening, you know, that comes up with the peacock and it was great, you know, and I'm just dying there and then the song comes in.

Right, and then it keeps going and it plays after a couple of different breaks going into commercial.

And I finally couldn't take it anymore.

And I said to the bartender, I said, hey, do you hear that song?

And he's like, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And I go, I wrote that song.

Like a jerk, right?

And he goes, that's great.

You want another beer?

I was expecting like a trophy or something.

I don't know.

But it was just so sad.

I was like, okay.

So you're the guy that wrote the song.

That's fantastic.

I'm watching basketball.

Can you let me alone?

And I'm a bartender.
