House of Pain’s song “Jump Around” is played between the 3rd and 4th quarters at Badger football games to pump up the crowd. The Badger faithful stand up, dance and well, jump.
The tradition of playing “Jump Around” began on Saturday, October 10, 1998, at the Badger’s Homecoming game against the Purdue Boilermakers. After the Badgers were held scoreless through the third quarter, one of the Badger’s marketing agents, who was in charge of sound, piped the song through the stadium’s sound system. It revved up the fans and players. The tradition continues on and is a highlight for many football fans.
