Reba’s Career To Come Full Circle At This Weekend’s Super Bowl

Chattanooga, TN – The Pulse:
The NFL apparently loves Country music. Last year, Chris Stapleton was invited to sing the National Anthem, and this Sunday at the Super Bowl, it’s gonna be Reba McEntire.
Reba is very seasoned at singing the “Star Spangled Banner” at sporting events. She’s belted it out, seamlessly at several NFL games, as well as the World Series, at an Indy Car event, and celebrity softball games to name a few.
Any of those events would be considered a lifetime achievement for most people, but the one that meant the most to her… happened 50 years ago:
Reba McEntire last sang the national anthem at a major sporting event in 1999, clocking in a lightning-fast 89 seconds.
The current total (90.5) is still very swift for Super Bowl standards, with country singers averaging an anthem length of 112.5 seconds, dating back to 1991. pic.twitter.com/YAAj6HlG1R
