I was watching the Dallas vs Arizona football game on FOX (11/2/2014) when during a very small segment towards the end of the 3rd quarter I noticed that they were playing the EXACT same music as is played during the champion select process in a LCS/Worlds broadcast.
So this begs the question, is the music being properly used by both Riot and FOX? Up until now I thought the music was unique to Riot League of Legends casting.
RiotPraeco9 votesHmm interesting. Do you happen to know where I could find that on some kind of video? Dan of our music team wrote that music, so I wouldn't know how they got to use that music piece. ;)

Maybe it was just music piece that sounded very similar, but not the same. =P Sometimes two pieces of music can sound the same despite not being the same.
Insane Pyromanic1 votesI actually have heard the same thing. I can't remember what song it was but I KNOW I heard a song from the LCS on football a while back.
Lightningfst1 votesI know what you are talking about, but I heard no variations or differences (as would be necessary to avoid copyright infringement).

I don't know where I can find a replay of it, but I definitely heard it too. There was no mistake what it was either. They were showing a replay of something and it was playing lightly in the background.
CyberTootie3 votesNFL.com's Game Rewind service.
Lightningfst1 votesI've tried to find public video of it but I doubt it will be available without some sort of subscription service as the NFL prohibits rebroadcasts without express permission. NFL.com's Game Rewind service might be the ticket, although I am not sure if it will show the FOX broadcast of the game. They do have a 7-day free trial option, so might be worth checking out (if you don't cancel they will bill you $60).
Also, I am a longtime musician and what I heard I am absolutely certain was the exact same as Riot's eSports champion select music during broadcasts.
Also, I found what sounds like the music on SoundCloud under user DJ Kourrie titled LCS Champion Select Music. https://soundcloud.com/djkourrie
CyberTootie1 votesGame Rewind, just like Sunday Ticket, will utilize the full broadcast feed.
Insane Pyromanic1 votesI heard warriors being played tonight, that's probably just imagine dragons thing but I have heard LCS music during football.
Burt Maclin1 votesJust found an example here in this youtube video. I heard it being used again today on a Fox related video but I cant find it. The song comes in the very end of this video as the send off music.

ModPrandine4 votesWell obviously a Red cares so you're wrong on that front. Maybe it's just you who doesn't care, but saying that no one cares is just a complete and obvious lie there in all honesty there, so there's that at least.

Lightningfst1 votesIt is about theft of copyrighted material. As a musician myself I would be pissed if someone ripped off my music and used it to make money.
Merxamers1 votesthey may have just stolen the music, lol. that happens sometimes.

If I am interpreting this correctly, this means if it was allowed to be downloaded by Riot, it can be used without restriction.

CyberTootie1 votesI think I may have heard what the OP might be talking about during a game at Cleveland Browns Stadium. However, I came away thinking it was not something from the world of League of Legends, although it sounded pretty similar to something in the 2014 World Championship bundle, what specifically I don't remember.
