our ability to include audio files for your download
(of course they are often available elsewhere on the

for your sound library. Specifically situational soungs
and bumbers and some other noteworthy songs ("hot
time outs", etc.)
Thanks to Glen Gower of the
Ottawa 67's (now with the NHL Senators) for his major contribution which was the
basis for this page. Also thanks to John Jackson with
Game Ops Commander for his significant contribution
to this list.
Of course, like the rest of
this site, the resource is only as good as the ideas
that are contributed. After reviewing this page, please
take a second and drop us an idea or song that is effective
for you. This simple form makes it easy to contribute.
