The other night, Jeff Gordon joined the ranks of Mike Ditka and Nancy Kerrigan (among others) by totally butchering the 7th inning stretch at Wrigley Field.
Or, as he called it, "Wrigley Stadium." He followed that gaffe up by singing the song too fast, forgetting some words and looking them up, which put him way behind so that when the crowd finished, he still hadn't gotten to "1-2-3 strikes, you're out." That gave the crowd plenty of time to boo him loudly as he finished the song.
I'm a little surprised WGN radio hasn't posted the audio on its website, but you might check later and see if it appears.

gordon's rendition was just horrible, putting him in "elite" company with mike ditka, ozzy osbourne. i didn't get to hear nancy kerrigan's rendition - maybe that is a blessing. i kinda wish will ferrell (formerly of SNL) would do the 7th inning stretch on a regular basis. his harry caray impersonations are priceless!!
