This song should die! It's horrible and sucks. The only reason this song is played is because it has "Baton Rouge" on the lyrics. I'd rather just hear any ACDC or Metallica song than that crap.


You should probably avoid Tiger bars and LSU sporting events.

You've never been to a game in Knoxville. They play that fricking song every 5 minutes all day fricking long.

We play it maybe once.

It's as shitty as Sweat Home Alabama in Tuscaloosa. And I'm pretty sure there are plenty of people on here who agree.



I don't mind it. And I'm not a country music fan. I like hearing and seeing people get pumped for the game when it comes on.

I couldn't care less about what Bama fans do when Sweet Home Alabama is played.


Callin' Baton Rouge is a fun song and when people hear it, it gets them ready, not that they haven't been ready, for the game. It's almost game time!


Quit being a pansy.

True. It's a touchdown! Rocky top!

Interception! Rocky Top.

Fumble and recovered by the other team! Rocky Top

The wind is out of the southwest! Rocky Top


There are no clouds! Rocky Top.

No! It's a song about a man, from somewhere(?), who probably committed statutory rape the night before.

I don't listen to country as my choice of music, but for some reason that song gets me going before kickoff. I've always thought they should play it before 2nd half kickoff as well to get the crowd going once again.

Personally I like Rocky Top, Sweet Home, Calling BR but in moderation. Boomer Sooners nauseated me during 2003, catchy little riff but after a couple hundred times, boring . We have some great music indicative of La. Dewey Balfas' Grand Mamou or La Jolie Blonde would impress me if I was visiting from some god forsaken place like Alabama. Jambalaya would work for our little friends from that fried sandpit. (Fla.) They could try to figure out how to cook it with conch in it. Just sayin.

Narrow minded people. If you don't like callin Baton Rouge you mine as well pick a new favorite team cuz it aint going anywhere anytime soon. As well it shouldn't.

The song is about a Samantha, not BR.

Your trying really hard to be an arse, when you know I don't have to explain that. Just read the title of the song and you should get the point.

Calling Baton Rouge...

OK. Now what does calling Baton Rouge have to do with Louisiana State University?

Alabama shouldn't play sweet home Alabama anymore. That's your logic
