Technical Difficulty Solved by Patriotic Dad

Its never fun when technical difficulties arise and prevent the show, concert, or sporting event from proceeding as planned. Most audiences are held captive as sound booth techs scramble to identify the issue quickly. That was the scene at a basketball game in  the Columbus Ohio area between Waverly High and Portsmith West. This left kids and audience members standing at attention, some with hands over their hearts, others saluting in an awkward pause as the music never quite began. 

In the stands a talented man named Trenton Brown got an elbow nudge from his wife as if to say, "fix it honey." He knew exactly what she was doing because she of all people know how talented a singer he is adding to her prodding, "just start singing it" and he did exactly that.

Soon the crowd joined in so that it was not just one man singing a solo. But even when fellow voices joined his, Mr. Browns certainly stood out and remained booming, proud, and beautifully patriotic. He took what seemed like a never-ending period of awkward silence and broke through with a Rockstar quality voice, putting everyone at ease from the hush, creating a heart-swelling moment for all in attendance.

Soon videos of his actions surfaced, catching the attention of local news network NBC 4 Columbus where anchors Darlene Hill and Brad Johansen "sang" his praises and played clips of the emotional scene. Brown, who comes from a military family, simply loves his country, loves the national anthem, and used his amazing talents to bless a crowd of people that wanted to honor America before enjoying a high school basketball game. As Darlene Hill suggests at the end of this segment, perhaps Trenton should consider an audition for The Voice (or the next America's Got Talent) because he is certainly a gifted singer.
