Country music star Travis Tritt sang the national anthem before Game 6 of the National League Championship Series on Saturday amid his very public declaration not to perform at venues that require any kind of coronavirus vaccine or mask mandate.
Wearing a Braves jersey, Tritt received a smattering of applause when he was announced as a "country music legend." There was a problem with Tritt's microphone, but a worker quickly handed him a backup mic that allowed him to sing "The Star-Spangled Banner" without any further issues.
After belting out the final words, Tritt patted his heart to a loud round of applause from the crowd of some 41,000. He lingered a bit in the prime seats behind home plate, bumping fists, shaking hands and chatting up.
