May 27, 2018What happens when the national anthem doesn’t play before a ball game?
The patriotic crowd STEPS IT UP.
That’s exactly what happened ahead of the Clovis-Buchanan softball game Friday night.
You see, the announcer told the Memorial Day crowd that they wouldn’t be playing the national anthem before the game, because it had already been played once before a previous game. The crowd wasn’t happy. So what did they do? They took matters into their own hands.

CHILLS. It may sound silly, but that fills me with so much hope and PRIDE in my country.
“Honestly, I was shocked (when) the announcer stated, ‘There will be no anthem, let’s just play softball,’” fan Tiffany Marquez of Fowler, Calif., told the Fresno Bee. “Within seconds, you could hear people in the crowd singing and the volume of their voices building. There I was, standing in the middle of a true testament to unity and patriotism.”
Bob Kayajanian, event coordinator, told the Bee that when more than one game is played in a day, the anthem is typically played only before the first game.
“We try to follow with what normally gets done,” Kayajanian said. “It’s all a learning experience for everyone and (going forward) we’re playing the national anthem at every game.”
Heck yeah.
Don’t let MSM fool you. I know things seem sucky most of the time, but patriotism is alive and well.
