Trying to Identify A Piece of Music

I don't know if it's from a movie or not, but I hear it a lot during football games. It starts off with loud chimes and then french horns come in.

I don't know if anyone can help.

1. It's a Chuck Mangione tune and I can't think of the name

2. Gary Glitter?

If it's the one I'm thinking of it's Gary Glitter's "Rock and Roll, Part 2".

3. "We are the Champions" by Queen

I know that's not it but that and Gary Glitter are all I hear at games.

How about the Star Spangled Banner?

4. Nope

It sounds like it's from an action movie or maybe a video game. It starts off with heavy chimes and then there's a crescendo of french horns. It's hard to describe.

6. Maybe the old Olympic Fanfare from the early 90s?

I can't remember which Olympic games. But I remember hearing it recycled during football season.

Ask Ted Turner.

9. Pro Football's Greatest Hits

Rock 'N Roll part II - Gary Glitter
Fire on High - Electric Light Orchestra
Mortal Kombat Theme - ?
Tusk - Fleetwood Mac
We are the Champions - Queen

To my knowledge, none of the above involve chimes or (except Tusk) French horns, but they could sound like it, depending on the quality of the PA system.

11. AC/DC

I often hear the "Hells Bells" opener at NFL games. It has the chimes (actually, it sounds like a church bell), but not the horns.
