Christopher Jackson's Anthem Slip: A Lighthearted Broadway Moment

0:00On March 26, Christopher Jackson, the actor who originated George Washington in the Broadway hit Hamilton, forgot some lyrics while singing the National Anthem before the New York Met's opening day game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. He nailed most of it but paused at the line. Over the ramparts we watched, then saying, what so proudly we hailed, instead switching up the order. Social media lit up right away, with fans joking it was a bad omen for the met season at City Field, while others just caught out the mistake. Jackson bounced back and finished the song strong. He's performed the Anthem before, including at an NFL playoff game between the Carolina Panthers, and the Los Angeles Rams back in January. Even stars from the stage slip sometimes, but with his track record and shows like Bull and in just like that, this one's already becoming. Lighthearted Broadway lore.
