I LOVED the Survivor Theme Song...even if the show did start to suck after the 2nd season.

Thank you!

Little-known bit of trivia: didja know that the 'Batman' in the theme song was not sung, but played with trumpets?

Oh hells yes. I may be biased though.

At all the football games, the frat boys make their pledges "paddle" in a row whenever the band plays the song. The male cheerleaders get the surfboard and a girl cheerleader gets on it while they carry her around the stadium.
