I know it's the Canadian but this is one of the best Anthem Moments in Sports

After the first verse the guy with the mic just stopped and let the fans take over

In the US, we don't know the words to the anthem.

Edmonton fans definitely gave me chills singing that.

Two other times it got to me, I was in a British bar during the World Cup and before England plays the whole place was screaming "God Save the Queen" at the top of their lungs. Truly impressive.

Then US played Germany in the World Cup and the Star-Spangled Banner got the same treatment. You could see tears welling up in just about everybody's eyes.

There is something about the WC. I always get emotional when I hear the anthem before a Cup game. Maybe because it really the National sport that i care about. I don't watch the olympics.
