Bye Bye Gomer - It's been fun

Some time in the 1970's, when I was a young lad, I was gonna watch a ball game. The announcer said that Jim Nabors was going to sing the National Anthem. I said, "oh no, not him". My mom said, "just wait, this will be good". She was right. I still think of him singing the Anthem whenever I hear it played.
Actually, I should have known better. He sang at least once in the Andy Griffith Show and Gomer USMC. Guess it didn't key in.
