When I hit submit I get this: "The service did not respond. Please try again later."

 

[Cpt Tenacious]

That's odd, Because I just did it.

Awesome. The comments even provide a fake name generator for those not in the US.

[Naudian]

I used the name Aids aids and it said Thank you! Your vote has been cast!

[Raziaar]

I expect like... an eighth of the crowd to groan in loud protest once they hear it, the people who are in the know of what the song signifies.

 

[Rapstah]

whats NY mets? Eighth Inning? Final Season At Shea? confuzzled

 

[Crash]

New York Mets are a baseball team. A major league baseball game has 9 innings (unless there is a tie after the 9 innings). Shea Stadium is where the Mets have played their home games sence 1964. (If anything is more than 30 years old here in the States, we like to tear it down and build new shit)
But someone is on to Cpt Tenacious' plan....

 

[[Matt]]

30 years old is brand new here in the UK :s

 

[Cpt Tenacious]

This is on YTMND on probably 4Chan. Man I hope this works.

[Krynn72]

"This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by MLB Advanced Media"

It's gone. D:

 

[CyberPitz]

HA, I watched it in time!

 

[OmegaX]

Copyright? lol. It was a short 40 second clip that showed no actual footage from the game. I hate YouTube and it's over-censoring of everything.

Runoff to Determine Mets New 8th Inning Song
The organization received 5 million votes on its Web site after inviting fans to choose from among 10 selections to potentially replace Sweet Caroline. An issue arose, however, when FARK.com readers bombarded the Mets with gag votes for a write-in candidate: Rick Astley?s Never Gonna Give You Up.

The Astley tune actually won.

Rather than commit to that as the new eighth-inning tune since it probably doesn?t reflect the fan base?s wishes, the Mets will play the top six selections once apiece during the first six games of their home stand. The one that draws the largest crowd response will stick.

The other songs that made the cut, in descending order: Livin? on a Prayer, Bon Jovi; I?m a Believer, The Monkees; Movin? Out, Billy Joel; Sweet Caroline, Neil Diamond; and Build Me Up Buttercup, The Foundations.

The Mets suggested the Fark tune winning didn?t necessarily result in the runoff, saying the contest rules stipulated Internet voters would ?help decide? the outcome.

Talk about a minor technicality, "help decide" my ass.

 

[Cpt Tenacious]

Gawd fecking damnit.

 

[Krynn72]

I wonder if there will be enough internetters at the game to make it win anyways.

 

[DEATHMASTER]

Hah, not even the youtubez copyright will stop this.
