On Tuesday night, October 6th, at Petco Park, Tom DeLonge found himself among the San Diego Padres' supporters as they faced elimination in the third game of their NLDS playoff against the Milwaukee Brewers. However, DeLonge, a lifelong Padres booster, found emotional resonance during the game when the stadium announcer played Blink-182's "All the Small Things" to energize the crowd.
As the iconic song filled the stadium, DeLonge was visibly moved by the unison singing of the nearly 43,000 fans, remembering the band's origin just outside of San Diego in Poway, California, in 1992. DeLonge, known for his passionate support of his home team, which has never won a World Series, joined the crowd, waving his yellow rally flags and bopping along to the music.
After the performance, DeLonge proudly shouted the iconic line, "Work sucks! I know," to the camera, sealing the moment as a beloved display of unity between the fans and the band he admires. The Padres ultimately won the game 4-3, and the next game is scheduled for October 7th at Petco Park.
