The museum-goer appears to be a fan of the CFL’s BC Lions.
True story: In the 70s I once sat in the Santa Cruz Greyhound bus station for a full hour, early for my bus. In the attached bar, the jukebox played “Your Cheating Heart” over and over. It was playing when I arrived, and still playing when my bus rolled out. Every time the song ended, there was that moment of silent uncertainty when you sensed everybody was clenching. Then it started again, and aside from a few grunting sounds people just tried to ignore it. Don’t recall if anybody ever went into the bar to complain. I had a mental picture of a huge, tattooed drunk crying in his beer, a pile of coins by the glass and nobody inclined to bother him.

Uninteresting and pointless, but True.
@bensondonald: Comedian John Mulaney has a routine about this, but using “What’s New Pussycat” as the song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mw7Gryt-rcc
I really love the “must still be loading” one.
The Wienermobiles “raced” after the final practice session before the Indianapolis 500 in well-received a publicity stunt earlier this year.
