Found on an old Betamax tape.

This isn't just any old Jays game, but the first game at the SkyDome.

You're right, I didn't realize that. Heck, the whole game is still on the tape.... I wonder if I should list it on eBay?

Awesome video!!! Thumbs up!! Thanks for posting!! The quality of the tape is excellent!! Do you know if this was a "first" time that an artist sang both anthems for a sports event? Of course Anne was fantastic too!! : )

Thanks for pointing out that she sang both anthems, I didn't realize that when I posted the video. Don't know if that was a first or not, but I thought it was worth posting. I have more old Beta tapes to sort through, so I may post other neat stuff later.

Anne's always fantastic -- I wish she'd teach American vocalists how to sing the Star Spangled Banner.  It routinely gets boggled in a murderous way by today's vocal stars.

Awesome Anne Murray

@packrat79 I think you'd get a pretty penny. Even if you made & sold digital copies of it.
