Shrewsbury crowd takes over national anthem after sound goes out

SHREWSBURY, Mass. — When the sound system went out a Saint John's basketball game Wednesday night, the crowd took over for the national anthem.

It may be the same old "Star Spangled Banner," but hearing a gym full of people singing it together makes it that much more inspiring.

The technical error happened just before the game between Shrewsbury High School and Saint John's High School in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts.

The crowd took over and sang the country's song together to get the game going.
