 Fight song - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fight songs differ from stadium anthems, used for similar purposes, in that they are usually written specifically for the purposes of the team, whereas stadium anthems are not.
Although the term "fight song" is primarily an American term, the use of fight songs is commonplace around the world, and may be referred to as team anthems, himnos equipos, or team songs in other countries, such as Australia, Mexico and New Zealand.
Fight songs are laden with history; in singing a fight song, fans feel part of a large, time-honored tradition.
