Memorial Day Tribute - Michelle Malone



We've all seen some pretty bad performances of the "Star Spangled Banner" over the years. Nobody can ever forget Roseanne Barr's mangling of the song, and there have been others who could not even remember the lyrics, if they ever knew them at all.

So what a pleasure it was, while googling the other day, to come upon this clip of Michelle Malone, doing a flawless rendition of the National Anthem, complete with a military flyover at the end. I can't think of a more fitting item to share with you on Memorial Day. Enjoy the holiday, drive safely, and have a good time. And, if you have a moment, take it upon yourself to remember those who have sacrificed their own freedoms, so that we may continue to enjoy our own.

By the way, this video was taken at the Atlanta Braves game on July 4th, 2008. The Braves hosted the Houston Astros, defeating them 6-2. Hit this link for the complete box scores of that game;

And did I mention that Michelle Malone will be in Charlotte this Friday?
