Fremantle Football Club
In April 2010, Eskimo Joe were announced as number-one ticket-holder for the Fremantle Football Club, replacing golfer Nick O'Hern. Quartermain joked that they might pen a club song, "We'll give it a crack. We're back here this winter writing our new record so, while we're at it, we may as well knock off a new theme song". The band held the honour until 2012, being replaced by Victoria Cross recipient Ben Roberts-Smith.

Famous quotes containing the words football and/or club:
“People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
“Please accept my resignation. I don’t care to belong to any club that will have me as a member.”
—Groucho Marx (1895–1977)
