Nashville, TN. (Top40 Charts/ Columbia Records) – Rockin' Country duo Montgomery Gentry have recorded close to 60 songs on their five Columbia Records studio albums, but they have never done over 80 versions of one song…until now. Their new single 'Lucky Man' has been edited with 81 different college and professional sports teams in over 60 markets, and each version has been serviced to the country radio station in those cities.

The second line of the song reads 'Last Sunday when my Bengals lost, Lord it put me in a bad mood.' In the edited versions, Montgomery Gentry replaced 'Bengals' with every team in the NFL and Major League Baseball, several from the National Hockey League and numerous colleges.

In a move to spur a little extra competition between the two Super Bowl cities, the Colts version was sent to the country radio station US99 in Chicago, and the Bears version was sent to WFMS in Indianapolis.

'This is probably my favorite song on the whole album,' said Eddie Montgomery. 'T-Roy and I both grew up in Lexington, so we saw plenty of bad Bengals years – definitely a few good ones, but a lot of bad ones.'

'Yeah, and this song really lent itself to plugging other teams in there,' added Troy Gentry. 'Every team has bad seasons just like we have good and bad seasons in our life. You just have to appreciate whatever you're going through – good or bad.'

In addition to the major league teams, college versions of 'Lucky Man' include:
Alabama Crimson Tide Arizona Wildcats
Arkansas Razorbacks Boston College Eagles
Clemson Tigers Duke University Blue Devils
Florida Gators Florida State Seminoles
Georgia Bulldogs Kansas Jayhawks
Kentucky Wildcats Louisville Cardinals
LSU Tigers Miami Hurricanes
Michigan Wolverines New Mexico Lobos
Nevada- Las Vegas Running Rebels North Carolina Tar Heels
Ohio State Buckeyes Oklahoma Sooners
Notre Dame Fighting Irish South Carolina Gamecocks
Tennessee Volunteers Texas Longhorns
USC Trojans Utah Utes
Wake Forest Deacons Wisconsin Badgers
The new single follows on the heels of their Top 10 smash 'Some People Change' from the album of the same name. Written by Dave Turnbull and David Lee, embraces family, friends and appreciating what you have.
