I normally fast forward through the singing of the National Anthem of a sporting even because the singers usually add their own rendition to draw attention to themselfs.
I just watched the singing by the Zac Brown Band dressed in Atlant Falcon's uniforms, singing the Nation Anthem the way it was written. My hat is off to them!!! Way to go guys!!!!

Way to go guys!!!!....TMan; If you don't mind me asking you this : "My hat is off to them!!! Way to go guys!!!!" The Zac Brown Band or The Atlanta Falcon's ? .....I seldom watch sports, since prescribing to The History Channel. ...Is Rocky Balboa still the Heavy Weight Boxing Champion ?

Both!!! The Atlanta Falcon's management team for booking them and to the Zac Brown Band for singing it the way it was written.
Not being an Atlanta Falcon fan isn't such a bad thing. Count yourself fortunate. The Falcons got beaten by 35 points yesterday. They were the #1 seed and were beat by the Packers who were the #6 seed.
Of course a few years ago the #6 seed NY Giants went all the way to the Super Bowl and beat the undefeated NE Patriots.
I don't follow boxing. ;D Back in the day when my son was a boxer he wouldn't let neither my wife nor me attend any of his matches. I don't remember what his win:lost ratio was as an amateur, but he did get his professional license before retiring. (He recognized getting hit in the head was starting to effect him).

...I followed Cassius Clay, even after he changed his name, religion, and refused to be drafted.
....Two days before his bout with Joe Frazier, in 1971, I was very close to completing my tour in Vietnam, and I had to go to our rear area for the E-5 promotion board.
...On my current event category, I was asked by The Board about my preference or favorite choice to win this match; Without hesitated, I answered with Cassius Clay. ....I received my promotion.
