Here Comes Saturday Night!

Did you watch college football on Saturday? I did! The Buckeyes were playing so I had to watch. I also had to shop, especially after that first quarter . . . YIKES! It’s how I help my team 😊
​

​Did you catch the commercials during the game? I didn’t know, until I started working on this post, that there’s a new set of commercials to promote the Big 10.

If I saw their commercial once, I saw it two dozen times. I didn’t mind . . . it made my toes tap every single time. And it brought back memories of my days as an OSU student in the Shoe. Funny, I discovered I love the commercial, and I only like the song. There’s a difference . . . Hmmmm . . . 

​​Part 1 – The Fall Out Boys: I’ve heard of them, but they’re not one of my favorite groups. I looked them up this weekend . . . actuallly I looked up the song title. You can too. If you want to hear the Fall Out Boy’s video, look for a link with Shazam on the end.
​

Sorry, I can’t share the link. It’s probably copyrighted which means Shazam would want money if I shared it. But, I can share the screenshot . . . that’s free.

If you play this video, don’t expect the football commercial. The Shazam video doesn’t even come close, but look for the one that’s linked to football, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. (I’ll show you how to find it tomorrow)

 Part 2 – The Commercial vs The Music Video: This was the last screenshot I captured. . . it’s the one for the commercial.  I googled ‘here comes Saturday night commercial.’ When I checked tonight, I found two more versions. Scan down the page to find them.
Why is the commercial better? It’s shorter, like 30 seconds, a minute tops. It showcases the chorus, the part that repeats. Add in a video, and you’ve got a hit that features the best things about Big 10 College Football like . .

The Players . . .​

​The Cheerleaders . . .

The Marching Bands . . .

​My photos are flat, but the commercial lives and moves. Every time I hear it, my toes tap, and I celebrate the BIG 10! If you don’t know what colleges make up the Big 10, take a look below. Did you notice there’s more than ten teams? Now, there’s fourteen!

Here comes Saturday Night and the Big 10!

PS –There’s more!! Coming in 2024, four more teams. . . USC, UCLA, Oregon, and Washington!
