October 9, 1965 – With Hang on Sloopy at No. 1 on the charts, the Ohio State University band plays the song for the first but not the last time thanks to band member John Tatgenhorst. He had to convince his band director to work it in. The crowd goes wild and the song has been played during games ever since with fans singing along loudly and making letters with their arms during a bridge in the chorus: O - H - I - O.
