Aretha Franklin was asked to perform "The Star-Spangled Banner" before the Lions and Vikings faced off on Thanksgiving, and the famed soul singer did not disappoint. While some criticized the 4 minute 35 second rendition for being overly long, Mike Opelka was enthralled.

"If you didn't like it, I got a problem with you," Mike jokes. "What a beautiful, beautiful thing to witness. And I loved every minute of it."

Listen live to Pure Opelka weekdays 7–10pm ET & Saturdays 6–9am ET on TheBlaze Radio Network.
