There have been a lot of creative, iconic, and legendary renditions of the Star Spangled Banner in history — but nothing quite like the Korea Town Senior Center performing it with harmonicas.
Nothing can prepare you for the LA Kings harmonica national anthem
Absolute magic.
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
This is how the Los Angeles Kings opened their Stanley Cup Playoff series against the Edmonton Oilers, and it was surreal. With nobody to sing the lyrics the crowd took over the role and accompanied the team of harmonica players to an unforgettable performance.
You can tell from the crowd there are definitely more than a few people who have no idea what to make of it. They’re straddling the line between trying to remain patriotic and cracking up with laughter. It’s also unclear why the Kings decided this needed to be the anthem for their home opener — but we sure are glad they decided to do something wholly unique.
I don’t know if anyone will try to replicate this. Or if they even should.
