Flyers got through so that means at least two more goes at it for the late Kate Smith and God Bless America from the Wachovia Centre.
The superstar, who passed in the mid part of the 1980's, sings her song before important games for the Philly Flyers NHL team. Last wee, May 19, 2010, the anniversary of the date she sang God Bless America before the Flyers clinched their first Stanley Cup championship, the US Postal Service held a ceremony attended by players from that championship team announcing the release of the Kate Smith US postage stamp in front of her statue at the Spectrum.
Her record so to speak is 89 wins, 22 losses, and 4 ties as of May 26, 2010
As you may have seen the video of her performance is accompanied by Lauren Hart, daughter of the late Hockey Hall of Fame broadcaster, Gene Hart, longtime voice of the Flyers.
Miss Hart is no slouch as a singer either and they make a nice duo.
The World Champion New York Yankees also use Miss Smith's talents during the 7th inning stretch and it seems to be working for them too. They are the Yankees, y'know.
