It's not a rock, it's the Athens Rock Lobsters. New minor league team honors B-52s

It's not a rock. It's the Athens Rock Lobsters.

Ah-ahh-ahhh-ahhhhh!

The minor league hockey team that will begin play next season in the home of the University of Georgia paid homage to the city's rich musical heritage by choosing a nickname made famous by one of its most famous bands.

The B-52s released their quirky, crustacean-themed song “Rock Lobster” in the late 1970s. Now, it's moving from the beach to the ice to adorn an expansion team in the Federal Prospects Hockey League.
