Here at TheBlaze, we've featured our share of unfortunate National Anthem performances. This latest one, however, might just outdo them all.
Eleven-year-old Harper Gruzins, a "singer-songwriter from Coppell, Texas," took the field Saturday at the Major League Soccer match between Dallas and Los Angeles. What followed is a nearly three-minute rendition that simply must be heard to be believed.
To the audience's credit, no one booed her, but the looks on the faces of some of the fans -- not to mention the players -- say it all.
Deadspin flat-out declared Gruzins' performance "the worst national anthem rendition ever," and explained their decision to feature it, despite her age:
Normally, we wouldn't post something that made fun of a little kid, but this particular child publicly refers to herself as a "singer-songwriter" and any kid who has that much pretension at age 11 deserves to be knocked down a few notches.
What's your take? Are we being too hard on her, or is this in fact the "worst ever"? Tell us below in the comments.
