This was after my CD came out in 1990 - “Jimmy Ryser” - and Jim Irsay was a fan. I was a MINOR one hit wonder but I loved singing the anthem. The cheerleader was signing it while I sang. My favorite anthem that I sang was at the Brickyard 400 in 2002 where we had 350k + in the Indianaoliis Motor Speedway and 72 million viewers. It was scary because as I was walking out to sing, Tony Stewart said “Don’t F up Ryser!” and smacked my butt. Some good times that I’m truly grateful for!!!

Small world. I believe I was at that race but was in the infield waiting for the flyover. Dumped fuel for Tony at a local race in 1996.

Hearing those jets fly over as I was singing almost made me lose my breath. There were several Medal of Honor vets in the suite and they were as tearful as I was when I was done. I still get choked up Bc it was also one of the last times my Marine father watched me sing. I love this thread Bc it’s exactly what my dad said he believed in. All of us to have our opinions and in the end find a way to love one another.

Haven't checked this thread in few days and was surprised to see it's up to 5 pages...what roller coaster it has been: started heading towards a political flavor and then WHAM!, Jimmy and the camel toe show up! Funny stuff.

I'll swear on a stack of bibles all I was wondering was what you did with your hands during the anthem.:D
