I LOVED the Winter Classic, but the OTT-ness of the Star Spangled Banner made me miss the first 5 minutes of the first, easy
I just couldn't stop laughing
It just got better and better, through pyrotechnics to the Top Gun re-enactment
I loved it, so so funny
Judge for yourself:
The way I see it, firstly the Canadians had their lovely, restrained, self assured, sexually confident, rendition of O Canada
Then the Yanks barge in with the BIGGEST manhood size complex eva eva ev-ahhh, and this was the result :D
If I was a Canadian sat in the Wrigley Field bleachers this afternoon, I would be so smug, secure in the knowledge that I just didn't need to try THAT hard.
As for the hockey - a thoroughly enjoyable game, and the right team won.
Talk about a giggle! I am a Canadian Chick married to a Yank ! The great thing about my man is that he is only second generation Yank - his grandparents were from Canada -luckily, that "confident" Canuck blood runs deep and we have no problem with our big guns here !;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks, I needed a good laugh and that did it. I had tears streaming down my face. I've not seen anything that funny in years. I thought you were freakin KIDDING about the Top Gun re-enactment.
ReplyDeleteI should have known better...
Loving the Canadian singer. Can I take him home please?
I was just thinking that the US rendition wasn't too bad, then the finale started- sooooo funny! TFS.
ReplyDeleteNow Sarah, don't forget your YANK cousin, who happens to frequent Wrigley Field! We have to be over the top you know!!! I am pissed at myself, I intended to watch that game...and forgot about it. I am glad you enjoyed it for the two of us. xo
ReplyDeleteFlo, what an absolute hoot! Very funny indeed !!
ReplyDeleteI think your commentary was the funniest part!!!! melinda
ReplyDeleteI just want to stress (having had a snotty email from a random American) that I'm not anti US - I love the American OTT style, I really do, this video makes me smile so much but I'm not laughing at all of America, just this particular anthem production. My favourite hockeyist is a Yank after all ;)
ReplyDeletehaha... it takes someone with a special sense of humour and view of the world to highlight the hilarity. i was chuckling at the singer battling the fireworks... and then the jets just capped it all
