Man I remember back in the 80s Monday Night Football with Hank jr. Opening up boy couldn't wait to get off work and open up them beer cans cuz all my rowdy friends are coming over tonight that was awesome ABC Al Frank and Dan Good Times
MNF was lot better on ABC with Hank Williams Jr. I hate the fact that they moved MNF from ABC to ESPN. Can't even watch Football on Local channels anymore. Damn you ESPN!
I like the Monday Night Football version better than the original. I'm glad Hank is still with us and telling it like it is. Too bad all the idiots ruined MNF and pro football overall. They don't seem to care that no one is watching anymore. It has been thirty years since football was good.
-I love Monday Night Football and made it a point to be in front of the tv to hear Hank, I sure will miss him, he will be a hard act to follow. BTW, I am female and black and I love country musoc also.
Too bad Chucky and McDonough are calling the game and SNF gets priority matchups. If you had Hank on SNF, it'd be almost ideal. I think Roundball Rock on TNT NBA would be great.
Compared to the politics, lootings & riotings, and nonsense COVID19 nonsense here in 2020...I would give anything to just rewind to a good ole fashioned Monday Night Football game with my Steelers!!
Hank Williams would be proud of his son and all his achievements... Hank 3 could never do what the other two Hanks have done. Gotta love how Hank Williams junior became his own man and this video is a piece of what his legacy will be. I only wish Hank senior lived long enough to see it and get more of his own achievements in turn.
They "fired" Hank because he bad mouthed the president at the time. They had to rehire him after Trump was elected when "they" started to bad mouth the president themselves. MNF was a television icon/legend/fixture/monument, it takes tremendous talent to mess it up. Yet they figured out how to do it.
@@walterwhite1 nah. It's just a football telecast that is blah on every level, both liberal and conservative. So screw MNF, and watch something that will put a smile on your face, like "Wayside".
Monday Night Football was great when it was on ABC and we can thank Disney for destroying Monday Night Football by giving all of ABC Sports to ESPN. Monday Night Football was better when when Hank Jr. opening song played as the opening song for Monday Night Football back then and Monday Night Football was an iconic show then but Disney destroyed that and Roger Goodell destroyed that too with his stupid rules and by not enforcing the rules when Colin C. decide not to stand for national anthem. This song will always be one of my favorite Hank Jr. song of all-time.
First Monday night all morality friends intro ever?.... And I just heard the news ... That they're not going to use old Hank Williams for Monday night football this year shake my damn head....... Communist f*****
I'll miss seeing Hank Williams, Jr. on Monday Night Football. Thanks for 22-plus years in doing the MNF theme, Sir! SCREW ESPN & ABC!!! Bravo, Randall Hank Williams, Jr.!
I wonder if the commercial itself was filmed June 6th because it didn't mention any teams in particular. So maybe it was to be shown at the beginning of the season. 8-25-15
Does anyone know where I can find the original version of All my rowdy friends are comming over tonight. The version with mel Tillis, George Jones and friends. If so please let me know, Thanks....I can't find it ....
i will never watch MNF again after what happened to Hank. This country is going to hell and people that dare to speak up about it are ostracised by the media.
The good old days when I would watch all American football with my kids. So sad now. Hong Kong sings our national anthem but these athletes protest for our gangster and thugs
@FutureNewsAnchor It's the tune associated with MNF, and it's Better than half the shit that's out there today though (Beiber, Gaga, Perry, LMFAO...). You are right though, no matter who it is, it could be An Elvis Presley Snoop Dogg mash up and people would still watch. Agreed about the Glee mention too
This was when America and Football was GREAT. You could watch the games for FREE without having to be robbed by the cable companies every month, and NO COLIN KAEPERNICK disrespecting America and the Flag. ESPN is the most politically correct organization ever. They won't show the fans on TV (scared of lawsuit), won't show the cheerleaders (sexist), and now they won't show the National Anthem to start the games (unpatriotic...plus no one wants to see the kneeling athletes disrespecting America). It all SUCKS! This will be my third year of not watching a single minute of a single game.
It's a sad day in America when you have to be so " Damn Politically Correct" that you can't express your own personal opinions without being punished because they run counter to the authority. I enjoy Hank Williams Jr. and all of his Monday Night Football intro's. WAKE UP AMERICA!
Life seemed more colorful back in the day. Ironic that society claims to be about embracing the differences, but everything is so dull and homogenous now. No life, just dull linear spaces. We try so hard to be non insulting that we just become soulless robots. Hank got taken off the intro because of some line in a song that somebody thought was racist.
I am sure ESPN didn't want to fire Hank. It was Just Political as you know. And Hank knew also. He has prospered from this as the great man he is anyways!
Hank was and will ALWAYS be the best opening for MNF, and it's not even close!
Little Richard blows this out of the water.
@@sillygoose635 Ah hell no!
what you mean you dont like Carrie Underwood? 🤮
@@debandmike3380that’s Sunday night football
THANK YOU
I wish it was like this again.... simple... original.... and great!!!
this isn't that great.
@@sillygoose635ok zoomer
I really like how the video starts off with the pinball machine, which was the focus of the MNF theme the previous year in 1988.
I miss this!!!! ESPN messed up big time. Nobody can replace Hank,Jr.
That's a good thesis statement. ESPN messed up big-time. It doesn't matter what it is.
Man I remember back in the 80s Monday Night Football with Hank jr. Opening up boy couldn't wait to get off work and open up them beer cans cuz all my rowdy friends are coming over tonight that was awesome ABC Al Frank and Dan Good Times
1989: 🎵"It's been here for twenty years and here it's gonna stay!"🎵
2005: leaves ABC for ESPN
It's still ABC, they just moved it over to ESPN which they own
@@shampoo7 their both owned by Disney
@@Moltar_Railfan That's what I said
@@shampoo7 sorry force of habit
2021 till tha end of time 🏈
MNF was lot better on ABC with Hank Williams Jr. I hate the fact that they moved MNF from ABC to ESPN. Can't even watch Football on Local channels anymore. Damn you ESPN!
Miss the old Monday Night Football theme songs
I made my 21 and 19 year old watch this as more proof the world was right back in the 80's! greatest era ever
The best part about Monday night football.
1989 - the start of something KICK-ASS for the next few NFL and TV seasons beyond the 1989-90 season.
I like the Monday Night Football version better than the original. I'm glad Hank is still with us and telling it like it is. Too bad all the idiots ruined MNF and pro football overall. They don't seem to care that no one is watching anymore. It has been thirty years since football was good.
The best MNF promo in my opinion. Sure miss it. Don't miss espn.
Saw him yesterday for a private concert and the man can rock it still
Hank no longer singing at the beginning is one of MANY reasons why I'm perfectly fine with not watching MNF
he's back!!!
Trainking922 HE IS BACK
Brad Maki "YESSA!"
He is back!
Like abc don't have mnf anymore
As a kid, Hank Jr. got me into MNF. But, I was too young to realize what team is worth while, lol
I just liked football!
Back when the NFL was good
Tell me about it! It wasn't ultra-political like it is now. My dad and my grandpa watched it religiously.
Exactly! Well said.
THAT'S WAS SHOT ON VIDEO 30 YEARS AGO THIS YEAR WOW WHAT A REMEMBRANCE!
-I love Monday Night Football and made it a point to be in front of the tv to hear Hank, I sure will miss him, he will be a hard act to follow. BTW, I am female and black and I love country musoc also.
2:06/ Gotta keep that core demographic happy.....
BOOOIIIIINNNNNG!😂❤
This is ABC Monday Night Football.
"Rowdy Friends"
VTR: June 6, 1989.
Take one.
Are you ready for some football?
This just in: ESPN bringing Hank Williams Jr. back to Monday Night Football.
Too bad Chucky and McDonough are calling the game and SNF gets priority matchups. If you had Hank on SNF, it'd be almost ideal. I think Roundball Rock on TNT NBA would be great.
I just heard that Florida Georgia Line and Jason Derulo will be joining :)
MSP10julia and they made it trash.
I miss this intro.
Thanks for the upload.
80s Early 90s Monday Night Football with Hank Jr.
ESPN ain't the same as it used to be. I miss ABC Monday Night Football with Al, Frank, and Dan :(
Oh boy I'm sure you were pissed when fucking MARSHMELLO did the MNF intro
monday night-tah!
Compared to the politics, lootings & riotings, and nonsense COVID19 nonsense here in 2020...I would give anything to just rewind to a good ole fashioned Monday Night Football game with my Steelers!!
Your team is overrated af, boomer
Early 90s Monday Night Football with Hank Jr.
Got goosebumps when he asked if we were ready for some football
This is the version they need to use NOW!
All Hank's rowdy friends have left Monday night .
Miss monday night football with "Hank"
Hank Williams would be proud of his son and all his achievements... Hank 3 could never do what the other two Hanks have done. Gotta love how Hank Williams junior became his own man and this video is a piece of what his legacy will be. I only wish Hank senior lived long enough to see it and get more of his own achievements in turn.
I got ketchup on my blue jeans, I just burnt my h...oh wrong song haha
Haha good one
We've gone from this to "Katelyn" Jenner. WHAT. THE. F#*K????
God it was just so much more fun then what we have now
"It's Monday f Night of f Rowdy Friend of Football Monday f Football Night"
On Monday night, I'm never ready for football until Hank asks me if I am.
thanks espn for screwing up Monday night football. it's sucked since ABC sold out and fired hank
They "fired" Hank because he bad mouthed the president at the time.
They had to rehire him after Trump was elected when "they" started to bad mouth the president themselves.
MNF was a television icon/legend/fixture/monument, it takes tremendous talent to mess it up. Yet they figured out how to do it.
Pppppppa
Amen!
ITS WOKE TRASH 🗑 NOW!
@@walterwhite1 nah. It's just a football telecast that is blah on every level, both liberal and conservative. So screw MNF, and watch something that will put a smile on your face, like "Wayside".
Hank, you da man.........to heck with ABC and ESPN
😘
I loved this intro! It showed actual Americans in the intro and was branded as the “working man’s game”. It was perfect until MNF moved to ESPN.
This is when the NFL was great!
Now I no longer watch it.
It's a joke compared to the old days.
Why is that
@@pureluck8767 Because we all work for a living so now we don’t have time for this crap
@@pureluck8767 all the pc social justice garbage
This is the original version of it! Sit down and watch!
I want to list all the versions so far!
This is the BOMB!
😘

It's everything I remembered and more 😂!!! The Best!
THE And I mean THE MNF theme..
These new artists blow😊
First Monday night all morality friends intro ever?.... And I just heard the news ... That they're not going to use old Hank Williams for Monday night football this year shake my damn head....... Communist f*****
"Hey fans, are you ready for some football?!" 🏈 "yes it's Monday night, 🌃 let's go!"
He's back!!!
ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2021
Hank lied to us "here it's gonna stay" MNF moved to ESPN, hasn't been the same since.
If they brought Hank back, their viewership would skyrocket!
Growing up in early 90s if u heard this song and you played the cowboys that was Your Ass!!
I sincerely wish we had intros for sports shows like this in the UK...
good old days
Bring back the REAL Monday Night Football, on ABC with Hank Williams singing , instead of this ESPN crap!
I'll miss seeing Hank Williams, Jr. on Monday Night Football. Thanks for 22-plus years in doing the MNF theme, Sir! SCREW ESPN & ABC!!!
Bravo, Randall Hank Williams, Jr.!
2021 season from here on out 🏈
Those were the days!
i remember watching the theme song and Monday night football as a little girl.
I wonder if the commercial itself was filmed June 6th because it didn't mention any teams in particular. So maybe it was to be shown at the beginning of the season. 8-25-15
Still 🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Yeah!"
Sorry, wrong tune lol. I was referring to Heavy Action/MNF theme.
Fire hydrant... so mesmerizing.
The tune IS British!. It was written by the late, great Johnny Pearson for Superstars on the BBC.
i used to turn football on early just to see the hank jr. introl,but its lost the electricity.now catch it in later in the first.
The best, I was at that niner redskin game at candlestick park
Reminds me when the Titans were the Oilers
There are more of us than them, if you know what I mean, bring back Hank to MNF!
oh yes, the best
Hank is great; too bad they took this away
Watched this every week after Mcgyver
Reminds me of the old bud light and coors logos
Bring Back Hank !!!! HELL YEAH !!!! 🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬
Monday Night ah.
when the nfl wasn’t political
damn straight! When it was about the game
I don't watch TV or sports. But when did football ever play in June? lol. 8-25-15
+AmericanPride1234 This was the first time this theme was aired. This was the debut
+AmericanPride1234 It originally was not the intro video, it was a commercial for MNF. Then once the season started it became the intro.
+amlnet49 oh ok. thanks for the clarification. I honestly couldn't figure that out. lol. the same time I literally, do not watch tv. 9-19-15
Does anyone know where I can find the original version of All my rowdy friends are comming over tonight. The version with mel Tillis, George Jones and friends. If so please let me know, Thanks....I can't find it ....
I heard they are going to use a Richard Wagner piece for the new intro.
i will never watch MNF again after what happened to Hank. This country is going to hell and people that dare to speak up about it are ostracised by the media.
The good old days when I would watch all American football with my kids. So sad now. Hong Kong sings our national anthem but these athletes protest for our gangster and thugs

To hell with espn. Hank you are da man.
Frank, Al and Dan were the best as well.
Life seemed more colorful back in the day. Ironic that society claims to be about embracing the differences, but everything is so dull and homogenous now. No life, just dull linear spaces. We try so hard to be non insulting that we just become soulless robots.

What are the guys at the beginning supposed to be? Firemen?
that'd be civil war II
I do miss these days. But I can't stand watching the NFL any longer. This will be my 3rd year not watching a single game.
Chief Zee at 1:34.
Football was better then.
Missing the rabbit ear age.
Anyone, lyrics please...
hell yeah!! hank is one of us..up yours espn!!
