Unique national anthem ahead of NFL Paris game between Steelers and Saints draws mixed reviews

The Soul Rebels' jazz national anthem before the Pittsburgh Steelers and New Orleans Saints game in Paris divided fans with its brass-band style. The NFL brought its French flair to the pregame festivities for the Paris game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New Orleans Saints, which was held at Stade de France. The Soul Rebels, an eight-piece brass ensemble, performed a unique rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" which was far from the typical version of the national anthem, made sense due to the French influence on New Orleans. However, mixed reviews were received with some calling it a "new worst national anthem." The game was postponed due to civil unrest in Paris, which led to a rescheduled match for Paris Saint-Germain. President Donald Trump expressed concern over the NFL's decision to proceed with the game as scheduled.
