Just saw this article...looks like Trisha may be singing the National Anthem at this Sunday's Daytona 500?



Most important to the six pilots flying this weekend is timing their arrival with the end of singer Trisha Yearwood's rendition of The Star-Spangled Banner before nearly 250,000 spectators and a network TV audience.

Wow that's huge! That race certainly draws a large audience on TV too!

It's on the news page now.

Cool, I'll have to tune in!

This is very huge and I'm so excited! Daytona is a big day in my family...we're huge NASCAR fans. I can't wait to see her sing on Sunday.

Boogity..boogity..boogity..let's go racin' boys!!!

Thanks Sandi! We can always count on YOU to give us the scoop!

I'll be watching for Trisha! The race will be secondary

Just heard Trisha... now why can't everyone do it that way? Just get up there and sing it with the right pacing, without any wild vocal theatrics, and like you actually believe what you're singing.

Thank you Trisha for singing the Anthem the way it was meant to be performed.

I was so excited, I yelled "There's Trisha" and scared my daughter! lmao!!

Trisha indeed did an awesome version singing as always -

Trisha looked and sounded amazing, as always

I just mentioned that in the other thread. I am thrilled that she just sings it straight up. Of course she also has the ability and the voice to do that without having to try to hide anything as it is a difficult song. I am so happy that she always sings it that way.

The daughter of a co-worker said to her mom "Wow, Mom, that was perfect!" Amen to that. It was perfect and I wish everyone would treat that song with that much respect. My husband (a former Army man) loves that she sings it the way it's meant to be sung. She did such a fantastic job!

Great Job Trisha at the Daytona 500....SWEEEEEEEEEEEEET . I am also very excited that I got notification yesterday that I have won a MEET & GREET WITH YOU~
Yes !!!! I am soooooooooooo excited....and you made my day. I look forward to Meeting you on March 6th. WOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO

HUGE HUGS & Many Blessings to you Trisha
See you soon
