"Bear Down, Chicago Bears" is the fight song of the Chicago Bears of the National Football League. It was written in 1941 by Al Hoffman under the pseudonym Jerry Downs, though Hoffman appeared to have little connection to Chicago. The song was written during the early stages of the "Monsters of the Midway" Era, as well as the year after the Bears had shocked the professional football world by defeating the Washington Redskins in the league championship game by the score of 73-0, which remains the largest win margin in any game in the history of the NFL.〔(Bears Fight Song Lyrics ), chicagobears.com〕 As a result, the Bears became the first team in NFL history to have a fight song. At home games, a version of the song recorded in 1993 by Bill Archer and the Big Bear Band is played every time the Bears score. After the Bears' Super Bowl XX-winning 1985 season, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra performed the song.〔''America's Game: The Super Bowl Champions'', "#2. 1985 Chicago Bears."
