Well said by all you on this thread. As a child all I dreamed of was being a race car driver especially at the Indianapolis 500. So much of the spectacle get me a little verklempt, not the least of which was Jim singing that song. Rest in peace Mr Nabors. Also thankful they got it right with Chicago Blackhawks anthem singer Jim Cornielson. Living in the shadow of Chicago and being a huge hockey fan I've seen him work plenty, and a fine choice. I hope he continues. If for some reason he doesn't, the former Hawk anthem singer Wayne Mesmer would do equally well
