For whatever reason this story is really bothering me.  I wasn’t there, I don’t know anyone who was there; but it’s just really bothering me.  Who the fuck decided it would be a good idea to play “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” in the middle of the Alaskan Cruise Ship midnight evacuation?  What are you kidding me?  That might be the most annoying song you could possibly come up with to play under those conditions.  It’s dark, it’s cold - people are scared for their lives jumping into lifeboats, calling friends and loved ones as their lives flash before their very eyes -- and some donkey band leader cues up fucking Harry Caray?! 

Personally I would’ve rather heard either “The Theme From The Love Boat” or the GNR version of “Knock-knock-knockin’ on Heaven’s Door”. Either one would've been more fun than "Take Me Out to the Ball Game".

Obviously the donkey band leader got the idea from the movie “Titanic” when the band continued to play Celine Dion songs while Leonardo DiCaprio (and others) were getting tossed all over the sinking ship.

Hey, if the Alaskan Cruise Band was going for “Take Me Out to the Ball Game”, at least they could’ve asked Devin Hester...
