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:
“In this dream that dogs me I am part
Of a silent crowd walking under a wall,
Leaving a football match, perhaps, or a pit,
All moving the same way.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“The barriers of conventionality have been raised so high, and so strangely cemented by long existence, that the only hope of overthrowing them exists in the union of numbers linked together by common opinion and effort ... the united watchword of thousands would strike at the foundation of the false system and annihilate it.”
—Mme. Ellen Louise Demorest 1824–1898, U.S. women’s magazine editor and woman’s club movement pioneer. Demorest’s Illustrated Monthly and Mirror of Fashions, p. 203 (January 1870)
