=About this song=
The Hartford Whalers used to play this song after every goal they scored, making it their unofficial "fight song".
=Instrumentation requirements=
Really goes without saying, but this cheer sounds best with a lot of brass, low brass especially.
=History=
After we finish playing the cheer, a chant of "Hartford....sucks! Hartford....sucks! Hartford....doesn't exist!" usually follows. After the November 10, 2006 women's roadtrip at [[Quinnipiac_University|Quinnipiac]], Hartford has been unofficially replaced by Northford in this chant.

+Really goes without saying, but this cheer sounds the best with a lot of brass (with an emphasis on low brass to belt out the bass line).
 =History=
-After we finish playing the cheer, a chant of "Hartford....sucks!  Hartford....sucks!  Hartford....doesn't exist!" usually follows.  After the November 10, 2006 women's roadtrip at [[Quinnipiac_University|Quinnipiac]], Hartford has been unofficially replaced by Northford, and then Harvard, and then Clarkson in this chant.
+After the band finishes playing this cheer, a chant of "Hartford....sucks!  Hartford....sucks!  Hartford....doesn't exist!" usually follows. During the [[2006-2007#Road Trips|November 10, 2006]] women's roadtrip at [[Quinnipiac_University|Quinnipiac]], Hartford was temporarily replaced by Northford in this chant. Later that season [[Harvard University|Harvard]] and finally [[Clarkson University|Clarkson]] took that spot, and the chant was always concluded with "Doesn't exist!" even if the said location really did exist at the time.  It is unclear if this tradition still occurs in the band today.
