Monday night’s game 1 Chicago Bulls vs. Atlanta Hawks was the most dreadful fan experience I have ever witnessed in playoff basketball. The momentum of the game was at an all time low from the players to the fans at the United Center. The evening started wonderfully, thanks to Cornelison’s beloved rendition of the National Anthem. Unfortunately, that excitement didn’t last during the essential points of the game when the crowd is needed to step in as the 6th man to rally the guys to pull out a win. The stadium seemed deflated and the energy was too mellow for a playoff setting.
It didn't matter what music the United Center played to get the crowd hyped up or how many times they flashed 'DEFENSE' or 'LET'S GO BULLS' on the scoreboard...nothing. I've seen a stadium full of fans shift the energy of a team with mediocre action to a group of madmen on the fevered dash to victory. So it completely behooved me when I didn't hear "Madhouse on Madison" by Mak Legend playing at the stadium to get the whole place rockin'! Or am I the only one digging the song that much?
Now, anyone who has heard “Madhouse on Madison” shows a serious appreciation for a song that speaks from the perspective of a die hard fan. This modern day ‘charging of the Bulls’ puts you right on the court with a team that fought through being riddled with injuries to finishing number one in the league. And the beauty of it all is that this is only Derrick’s third year. Needless to say, the city is excited about the way this team is shaping up. It's like watching Jordan and the crew all over again.
I am officially starting a twitter petition called #TeamMadhouse for the Chicago Bulls anthem "MADHOUSE ON MADISON" to be played all over the city and in the United Center where is it truly needed as the voice of the fans!
