The Coolest National Anthem Ever

Okay, so I must write this down so as to not forget it.  Karen and I went to the Utah State Basketball game tonight.  It started at 10pm because of the tv schedule.  That worked well because of stake conference.  Roxanne had been asked to play the national anthem.  It was incredible.  The spectrum was full, rowdy, cheering crowd, then the announcement.  They had a military color guard walk down the entry way, onto the court.  Absolute silence. Then, Roxanne began to play.  So beautiful.  So Expressive.  The crowd sang along.  It was great.  There were some nice camera shots as she played projected on the jumbo tron above the court floor.  It was a moment to be remembered.  The game was pretty exciting, too.  All in all a great evening.
