Wayne Messmer was the Chicago Stadium. That voice and hearing these old clips at the Chicago Stadium still sends chills up and down the spine. You are foolin' yourself, if you deny what I am saying?!
This was emotional thank god Wayne survived and was able to continue singing it’s sad he’s not still doing Hawk games and they had a falling out. He was the Jim cornilson before Jim
Even all these years later...hearing Wayne sing the Star Spangled Banner in the old Chicago Stadium makes me tear up. There wasn't a more beautiful sound out there than hearing Wayne Messmer sing with about 17,000 "back up singers". The United Center is nice...but NOTHING will ever be like the Chicago Stadium.
Wow. Seems unreal. This was in a time and place before it became chic to wear the flag pin on the lapel of a coat to prove your patriotism. This was still in a time and place where no one could text security that "Idiots are lighting sparklers in my section". This was in a time and place where most people didn't have to be directed to give their sincere hope of recovery to a good neighbor & friend and his wife, Wayne and Kathy Messmer. Thank you for this video.
Who doesnt? I have the deepest of respect for both Jim and Wayne. Its just Wayne sounded better w the old barton organ and Jim sounds better with the new organ they have. They compliment better as a match
There was no place more original than the madhouse on Madison st. It should never have been torn down. The roar during the anthem was devastating and inspiring.
Wayne's a tenor and Jim's a baritone. They're similar in singing style just have different tones. They should have moved the barton organ to the horizon when they Wayne moved on.
"That's Chicago Stadium. That's Hockey!!!" It brought tears to my eyes. I miss the old barn.

It's a BlackHawk thing, they wouldn't understand. FEAR THE HORN AND BRING HOME A REPEAT

The UC will not capture the old stadium and its passion it was unreal
The good old days, miss the Barton 6 manuel organ!
Tears, tears & more tears!

Nice to hear that Barton organ again.
I had season tickets for 15 years at the Stadium, and that was the loudest anthem I can ever remember. The UC isn't the same.
This year should have been 89 years very long time
wow 65 years very long time
I am a big red wings fan and blackhawks fans i want tickets to watch the Blackhawks play and red wings play
Who is the voice of the Chicago blackhawks stadium
Wayne was the singer and I believe the old PA announcer has since passed
Chicago Stadium the biggest home advantage in any sports next is Lambeau Field in Green Bay
As a Rangers Fan I wish other original six arenas were still around besides ours
Even though i was a baby when it came down, I'll always wish i could've seen a game in the old barn
Trust me ... it was nice but still a cramped shit hole.. kinda like Wrigley but more people
Wayne sings, Jim shouts. Advantage Wayne.
WHO IS THE VOICE IS CHICAGO BLACKHAUKS
Wayne's a tenor and Jim's a baritone. They're similar in singing style just have different tones. They should have moved the barton organ to the horizon when they Wayne moved on.
