The Hollywood Casino 400, the second race of the NASCAR Playoffs, is starting in Kansas. But because it’s the anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks, NASCAR added extra significance to the national anthem today.
A B2 bomber flew above as a member of the US military sang the national anthem. The Kansas Speedway crowd as a whole stood silently in awe of the dramatic event.
USA Network cameras captured the scene’s magnificence, and people have been raving about it on social media.
