Jimmy Buffett Drops the Mic After National Anthem Performance at NFL Playoff Game

Michelle Ruoff -

Last night, Jimmy Buffett ended his performance of the National Anthem at the NFC Championship game in New Orleans with a mic drop.

Prior to the game between the Rams and the Saints, Buffett, a lifelong Saints fan, performed a straightforward rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Then, just after he finished the last line, “And the home of the brave,” Buffett lifted his right arm and dropped the mic near the 50-yard line.


Check out the mic drop moment below.
