Most of us are used to the typical celebrity performance of the Star Spangled Banner. They usually add their own embellishments, sometimes making it almost unrecognizable. Instead of being proud while listening, one is cringing and wondering what the person in charge of picking the musical guest was thinking.
In the most recent bout of Monday Night Football at MetLife Stadium, the Indianapolis Colts were matched up against the New York Giants with world-renowned trumpet player Chris Botti performing the National Anthem.
Standing in front of a huge American flag, Botti did the nation proud with this stirring rendition. So much so that he moved the Colt’s wide receiver Reggie Wayne to tears.
