With Tigers Opening Day coming up on March 31st, we here at WOMC went in the vaults to find out what the number one song in the country was on Opening Day way back in the day. These songs will either bring back memories of beautiful spring day games, or bitter cold tailgates. Make sure you join us this year at our Opening Day Block Party! If you attended any of these games, please leave us your memories below in the comments field.
