If you've spent any amount of time in the Buckeye state, chances are, you know and love The McCoys' classic “Hang On Sloopy.” You've likely heard it at Ohio State football games, at weddings, in bars, and who knows where else.

It's the official rock song of the state of Ohio – nothing more needs to be said.

Saturday, The Ohio State University Marching Band welcomed Rick Derringer of The McCoys to Ohio Stadium for a performance of the arrangement prior to the Buckeyes' home game against Hawai'i. And we'll stop here so you can enjoy it.
