One of the true joys for this lil ole chiweenie Sportsphile who is responsible for posting my Bone Daddy’s incredible 12,000 vintage video library here at ImaSportsphile…..has been the ability to post so many different renditions of our National Anthem, the Star Spangled Banner…..which has been performed by many many various bands, groups, solo artists, television and motion picture personalities in so many venues and stadiums around the USA and the world.
This particular performance of The Anthem was played at the start of the 1978 National Invitation Tournament (N.I.T.) semifinal game between Rutgers verses Texas by The Showband Of The Southwest…. the marching band at The University of Texas in Austin.
