All fans say the same thing about the playing of the national anthem before the NFL Christmas game

NFL fans were blown away by the Grammy-winning a capella group Pentatonix as they performed the national anthem just before the start of the Texans-Ravens game on Christmas Day.

The five-piece group sang harmonies combined with a vocal base that amazed many NFL fans online.

Pentatonix was founded in 2011 to compete on the NBC competition show “The Sing-Off,” which it won. Since then the group has sold out venues.

They have also won three Grammy Awards and were honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame last year.

As cameras panned to NFL stars like Lamar Jackson and CJ Stroud listening to the national anthem, they appeared amused by the singing, unlike those at the 2018 NBA All-Star Game with Fergie’s rendition.

Here’s a collection of what NFL fans on social media thought about the acapella legends.
