Of interest, Bryan is the third male country singer to score the national anthem spot in the Super Bowl’s 51-year history, along with Garth Brooks (1993) and Charley Pride (1974); the sixth country act ever, joining Carrie Underwood (2010), the Dixie Chicks (2003) and Faith Hill (2000) on the list. But, why is he an odd choice to sing the Super Bowl national anthem? Know more at The Washington Post.
Bryan sang the national anthem at Super Bowl 51, and while he did manage to stay under 2:30, he took his time with it and dragged out each word. It clocked in at around two minutes and four seconds — pretty slow (though certainly not the slowest). Watch his performance at USA Today.
