Mammoths Stadium Guide

In Game

Lacrosse fans in the Denver area will be in luck as the city is home to both a field lacrosse and box lacrosse teams. The popularity of the sport can be seen by the fact that in the past the Mammoth have had better attendance than both the city’s NBA and NHL teams with which they share a building. The people of Denver love lacrosse, and it shows on game days as the Pepsi Center is filled with fans in maroon and black.

One of the unique things that sets Mammoth fans apart from other Denver-based sports fans is the appearance of cowbells at games. All throughout the game, you’ll hear fans ringing cowbells to rile up their team, which creates a one of a kind atmosphere inside the Pepsi Center.

Another thing that makes attending a Mammoth game a fantastic experience is the fact the Pepsi Center is among the best in the league when it comes to location. You’ll find plenty of great places to eat and drink before and after the game within walking distance of the arena, and The 16th Street Mall and Larimer Square are only a quick shuttle ride away.

If you’re a lacrosse fan, then you’ll have an excellent time attending a Mammoth game as the incredible fans and great location of the stadium, make a trip to Denver an unforgettable experience.

Fight Songs

  1. Goal Horn and Goal Song

    1:15 mark

    Rising up, back on the street
    Did my time, took my chances
    Went the distance, now I’m back on my feet
    Just a man and his will to survive

    So many times it happens too fast
    You trade your passion for glory
    Don’t lose your grip on the dreams of the past
    You must fight just to keep them alive

    It’s the eye of the tiger
    It’s the thrill of the fight
    Rising up to the challenge of our rival
    And the last known survivor
    Stalks his prey in the night
    And he’s watching us all with the eye of the tiger

    Face to face, out in the heat
    Hanging tough, staying hungry
    They stack the odds still we take to the street
    For the kill with the skill to survive

    It’s the eye of the tiger
    It’s the thrill of the fight
    Rising up to the challenge of our rival
    And the last known survivor
    Stalks his prey in the night
    And he’s watching us all with the eye of the tiger

    Rising up, straight to the top
    Had the guts, got the glory
    Went the distance, now I’m not gonna stop
    Just a man and his will to survive

    It’s the eye of the tiger
    It’s the thrill of the fight
    Rising up to the challenge of our rival
    And the last known survivor
    Stalks his prey in the night
    And he’s watching us all with the eye of the tiger

    The eye of the tiger
    The eye of the tiger
    The eye of the tiger
    The eye of the tiger
