Blink-182 Frontman Tom DeLonge Moved To Tears While Singing 'All The Small Things' With The Petco Park Crowd

Fox Sports cameras caught the Blink-182 frontman tearing up as 43,000-plus fans sang the Padres’ eighth-inning anthem back to him.

  • On Tuesday, Oct. 6, 2026, Blink-182 guitarist Tom DeLonge watched the San Diego Padres face the Milwaukee Brewers at Petco Park, where 43,000-plus fans sang his band's 1999 hit "All the Small Things" during the eighth inning.
  • Originally released on the 1999 album "Enema of the State," the song is a recurring Petco Park tradition when the Padres hold a late lead, becoming an anthem for the team's postseason atmosphere.
  • Following the crowd's rendition, DeLonge sang along to the lyrics "Work sucks, I know," on camera as San Diego defeated Milwaukee 4-3, keeping the Padres' season alive in the NLDS.
  • FOX Sports broadcast the moment, which quickly spread online; Padres infielder Jake Cronenworth's go-ahead home run and closer Michael King's strong performance secured the victory.
  • A lifelong Padres booster, DeLonge has previously supported the team through ceremonial first pitches and exclusive merchandise collaborations with his To the Stars brand ahead of Game 4 tonight, Wednesday, Oct. 7, at Petco Park.
