The NFL hosted its season finale on Sunday. It was an eventful evening with the Buffalo Bills beating out the New England Patriots to earn the #2 seed. However, the matchup between the Tennessee Titans and Jacksonville Jaguars featured something special before the game even started.

Most all sporting events in this country feature a moment to play the national anthem just before the game to honor our country and the values we stand for (assuming the NFL players aren’t kneeling the whole time). The Jaguars featured a unique rendition of the national anthem performed on electric guitar by none other than a Florida man sporting an epic mullet. I don’t think this performance could’ve been more patriotic. The entire stadium is adorned with American flags on the jumbotron, on the field, and even the performer’s guitar which had the flag painted on it.The guitarist in the video is named Paul Wane who is a local Jacksonville resident. He plays in band called “Duval County Line”. Wane also has been operating a nonprofit foundation called “Guitars for Kids” which has supplied nearly 300 instruments to children over the past several years.

One of the kids who was a given a guitar from the foundation happened to be the son of a security worker at the stadium. The individual within security connected Wane with the Jaguars, which is eventually how we was chosen to perform the national anthem. Wane said, “We gave an instrument to a young man, and it turns out his father works security here at the stadium. He got to talking to some of his co-workers about it, and they invited me to do this.”

Wayne also said that out of the enormous crowd at the Jaguars stadium the most important people there were his family members. “My mother will be standing there. Unfortunately, my father is not here to see. I wish he could, but he’s watching,” Wane said. “My uncle, he gave me my first guitar, he’s going to be standing there.”
