Cool.  Someone should get the group to sing the "Hey Baby" song and try to get it to catch on with Wolves fans.

Bump.  Not much response to this event yet.

I just signed up to go to the Wolves game with my son.  The Cornell representative said they only had one ticket sold on Tuesday, but are now up to 17 tickets sold.  

I must admit I am not familiar with the tune to the song "Hey Baby."  The words I can find at E-lynah Cheers, but the tune is unknown to me.

The tune is the Bruce Chanel song, circa 1961, titled "Hey Baby" without the circumflex over the a.  Unfortunately, a prior social commitment will keep me from singing with you.

We'll see you there, Jay.  My wife and I were first on the list.  
I don't know the tune to "Hey Baby", either.  Couldn't reproduce it vocally even if I did know it.  And I don't have a cow bell.
