Throwing Toast beat Wisconsin's 5th quarter by 5 votes.

In what I thought to be an upset, the 7th Inning Stretch shocked Cheeseheads, 5-4.

I thought the Cheeseheads had it easy. That out of tune songs gets my vote this time though.

I hate the 7th Inning Stretch.  If it was up to me, it wouldn't have made it out of the first round.  And the throwing toast thing is really unique and funny and has a good story behind it.

Ugh.  This boring turd is going to advance.

Boring turd?  Its one of the best sports traditions out there, and most widely observed.  Every fan that has ever been to a baseball game has heard of the 7th inning stretch.  But, until last week, I've never heard of throwing toast.

Carrying toast around to wait for the third quarter is stupid.

I missed the first round but I'm not sure how it was even close. The 7th inning stretch is such a hollowed tradition I can't see many things even giving it a run.

That song sucks, its just better than carrying toast around. I have no idea how the song got out of the first round.

Spoken like someone who hates baseball...

Its not just about the song.  Wow.

Its the whole thing.  The song is about 50% of it.  Anyone that has ever been to Wrigley Field when Harry Caray was there (RIP) would never say "that song sucks."

You sure seem to have quite a bit of affinity for this song after bashing the entire idea of songs earlier in the contest. Harry Caray couldn't carry a tune and that is fact. It isn't the song as much as the performance itself sucked.
