The direct opposite reaction yet none the less just as touching.

Wow 22 years ago. Don't remember much about the game but will remember the song forever.

I remember Vicki Sue Robinson getting lustily booed at Madison Square Garden before a Ranger game in 1975. Guess the crowd didn't care too much for her "Turn the Beat Around" version of our National Anthem.

Marvin Gaye 1983 NBA All Star.
Great rendition. He turned the national anthem into a song of his own.

Best one is Whitney Houston:

Loved Whitney's version, but love all her songs...Miss her..

One of my all time versions is this one by Linda Ronstadt..

The best ever is Borat doing his country's(Kazakhistan)

Kazakhstan greatest country in the world.
All other countries are run by little girls.
Kazakhstan number one exporter of potassium.
Other countries have inferior potassium.

Kazakhstan home of Tinshein swimming pool.
It’s length thirty meter and width six meter.
Filtration system a marvel to behold.
It remove 80 percent of human solid waste.

Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan you very nice place.
From Plains of Tarashek to Norther fence of Jewtown.
Kazakhstan friend of all except Uzbekistan.
They very nosey people with bone in their brain.

Kazakhstan industry best in the world.
We incented toffee and trouser belt.
Kazakhstan’s prostitutes cleanest in the region.
Except of course Turkmenistan’s

Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan you very nice place.
From Plains of Tarashek to Norther fence of Jewtown.
Come grasp the might phenis of our leader.
From junction with the testes to tip of its face!

That's my favorite, too. Gives me goosebumps.

My close second is Arturo Sandoval's. If you ever played trumpet you'll understand.

Default Super bowl prop

Under in the national anthem she'll be finishing at the same time as the running of the derby and travers. Under is the play .

Super Bowl 50 analysis .
I'll keep it simple . Arizona and Seattle are both better than Denver . Carolina whipped them both . There is only one possible outcome . carolina will beat them to within an inch of their life. We saw this show 2 years ago , except Seattle was doing the beat down . Easy money

That was ugly . Not much more to say. From booing Tom Brady. To lady gaga with that brave reprise , to that half a sissy halftime show. Boring scripted mess.
The commercials sucked too. Complete disaster . Maybe the worst ever
