National Anthem at United Center opening night 1/25/95 - Wayne Messmer - Chicago Blackhawks

Wayne Messmer returns to the Blackhawks one final time to sing the inaugural anthem at the new United Center on 1/25/95. This was the first game at the UC to open the building after the 1994-95 lockout delayed the start of the NHL season.

Jim Cornelison is good, but Messmer is better.

How do you beat Cornelison? This guy's good too but let's be honest...

@toewsfan0910 True, but when the Blackhawks first started playing at Chicago Stadium, that wasn't as bad of a neighborhood as it is today.

its funny how the madhouse is in the middle of the hood, when theres hawks games 22,000 plus white people like me all fill up the arena and everythings fine, but when the game is over and everybody leaves, it turns into a shitty neighborhood again but still gotta love chicago :)

CHICAGO IS THE BEST....AND I'M FROM PHILLY!

it would be really cool if he was to sing at Chicagoland speedway for the nascar races

@ROBCRX I sure hope not. JC's is much better in my opinion.

Rumour has it that Wayne Messmer is coming back to sing the blackhawks anthems next year. Can anyone confirm ?
