For the sixth time in their four season existence, my 20 year old son performed the National Anthem last evening as a sax solo for the AAA Lehigh Valley Ironpigs (vs. Buffalo):

Bill, that's very cool. Thanks for sharing. He must be quite a sax player!

I remember your posts from past years when he performed it other times as well. That's great that they bring him back every year...hopefully it'll continue for years to come!

One of the hardest instruments in the band ensemble. I'm a claranet player myself. And I can tell you from first hand experience for him to preform on a public stage he must be very good. Congrats Dad!

Does he get any cool game items from the team for preforming? I'm surprised they didn't throw a personalized jersey on him to perform in.

I love the sax! If I had been there to hear him play the National Anthem on his sax, I guarantee it would have given me the chills! That is too cool... thanks for posting the pictures.
