Luke Humphries has revealed how he ended up with a walk on song that he couldn’t stand. The Leeds supporter is famous for currently rocking the Kaiser Chiefs' 'I Predict a Riot', but only took up the anthem in 2024.

Before that it was Cake by the Ocean by DNCE, which Humphries wasn’t exactly a fan of yet he had to have for a few years. Taking part in Agree to Disagree with SPORTbible, he and fellow darts great Luke Littler were asked to rank their walk-ons, and both went with Littler’s Pitbull number.

World champion Littler asked his rival how he ended up with Cake by the Ocean, and then bowed his head in embarrassment at the answer. “Sky Sports,” Humphries replied. “They did me right up there didn’t they? Mugged me right off". “But I think I’ve chosen a better one now and it’s definitely better than what it was before.” I predict a riot is a UK classic but also have major connections to his beloved Leeds United.

Both players have said how Littler's walk on is one of the best even with Humphries saying "I never heard of it before you used it."

I’ve had it since Wrestlemania 33, eight years ago now,” he explained. “Every Wrestlemania has its own tune and Flo Rida sang it with LunchMoney Lewis and I was there right up in the stands.” Littler also went on to say he is waiting for Pitbull to turn up to one of his tournaments.
