Hockey Arena Plays Mike Tysons Punch-Out Music During Fight

A fight broke out in last night%u2019s Dallas/Edmonton NHL game between Krys Barch of the Stars and Zack Stortini of the Oilers, which isn%u2019t particularly noteworthy in itself, but listen to the fight music playing over the Dallas arena speakers. Looks like Barch was on a roll with the star-punches but misjudged how much life Stortini had left and couldn%u2019t knock him down, then just ran out of hearts. Stars coach Marc Crawford tried to encourage him by yelling “Join the Nintendo Fun Club!” but it only restored a tiny bit of energy when he hit select. For the record, playing the Punch-Out music isn%u2019t a new thing at the American Airlines Arena, but it%u2019s gone from being an occasional novelty to being the team%u2019s standard fight music of choice, probably thanks to nostalgic, in-the-know jerky nerds like us. Speaking of jerky nerds, why is the Punch-Out TRAINING music playing during the fight? It should be the fighting music. I mean, crap, I%u2019m all for NES Easter egg music cues but let%u2019s straighten out our details here. If someone gets an Icing call, would you play the music from FIRE MAN%u2019S level in Mega Man 1? I don%u2019t think so.
