All right, no it wasn’t a concourse full of piss-filled beer cups like the Chicago Cubs had on Opening Day at Wrigley Field in 2015, but the White Sox certainly wish Monday had played out differently. There are fans who believe the only reason the White Sox didn’t cancel the game earlier was to get as much money as they could from beer and food sales. Fans were fighting in the stands and well everyone knows the product on the field isn’t going to be good. So, how was Opening Day even worse for the White Sox? Fans wanted to kill themselves after listening to the music played during player introductions.
No way it can be that bad right? Wrong. Apparently the start of the following song was put on a loop and fans were ready to blow their brains out. Do the White Sox want fewer people showing up to Guaranteed Rate Field because if they do, I guess this works.
Brace yourself.
The Detroit Free Press wrote about it and Twitter blasted the White Sox too.

Congratulations, @WhiteSox – you've done it. The most annoying, suicide-inspiring music ever used for Opening Day introductions!

What the hell is this music?! It took all of 10 minutes for the White Sox to annoy me this season.

Just when I thought I couldn't hate the White Sox anymore. Seriously, these intros are pathetic. Not to mention this God forsaken music!

The intro music being played by the Chicago White Sox for Opening Day may be the most annoying thing ever. #KillItWithFire

How long does it take to introduce a baseball team in #chicago? Intro music at the @whitesox & @DetroitTigers is horribly repetitive!!

What's up with Chicago and obnoxious sports music? First Chelsea Dagger and now whatever this White Sox intro stuff is.

You know why the White Sox are the worst Chicago franchise? Because of intros like this

@whitesox I had to turn the volume down. That music was horrendous. I think my ears are bleeding. Seriously. #dobetter

Hey @whitesox maybe don't have the worst possible music playing for 15 straight minutes?
— Nolan Wolffis (@loscontrarian) April 3, 2017
Please retire that player intro music. Got a headache just watching on tv.

#detroittigers If they try harder the white sox could find even more annoying music to introduce their line up.

This so seriously one of the most ridiculous Opening Day displays I've ever seen.
— Palmer (@palmerwhite26) April 3, 2017
C’mon, it wasn’t that bad.
The Chicago White Sox were introduced driving in Ford Mustangs… if that isn't south side I don't know what is. #cwsopeningday pic.twitter.com/vMmzwbjIOB

OK, maybe a little ridiculous.
