A song written before most professional athletes were born was played more than any other at sporting events last year. According to music licenser BMI, Queen's "We Will Rock You" topped the list of sports anthems during the 2009-2010 season.

the list is flawed and i will tell you why. it does not have crazy train on it and i know for a fact that it was played<95% of every time the ball was kicked off in the nfl.

Not..."the HEY song" ? At all ?

Maybe that's basketball or hockey. Hmmm...

I think in all of sports every year this might be #1.
