"Hello?" I said.
"YOU WON!" an enthusiastic voice cried on the other end of the line.
I had forgotten that I'd even entered. Whitney had tipped me off to a contest earlier in the week: The Los Angeles Dodgers were looking for a fan to sing the national anthem. So I tweeted them a video of me singing our U.S. "theme song" and unassumingly went on with my day.
Now it was Saturday, and I won! The announcement had been made via twitter.
"WHAT?!" I responded to Whitney.
Then my cel phone lost service.
So I spent the next twenty minutes waiting with much anticipation to call everyone with the news!
The next day I headed to Dodger Stadium with my male entourage of buds and my boyfriend. Everyone at the park was so accommodating and thorough. It could not have been better. After running through the anthem and God Bless America with organ veteran Nancy, they let me run through the numbers again down on the field. So I felt super prepared and ready to go. The videos are below. Special thanks to Lani and Danny who took good care of us that day.
The Nat'l
God Bless
