Large tracts of bright red sunset spread out mightily, and the lake-blue sky was like two drops of thick and heavy paint, dyed into purple bit by bit, richly and thickly dyeing the sky above. All the variegated colors were swallowed up, and the pure and translucent sky faintly revealed a thrilling golden color. Even the slowly blowing sea breeze became majestic.
New Orleans is a port city located on the Gulf of Mexico. The magnificent scene of sea and sky always makes people linger. The warm climate and humid rain make it like a tropical rainforest escape. Even in the severe cold winter, you can still enjoy it. Feeling the lingering lingering scent of spring flowing through your fingertips makes people want to open their arms and embrace the dazzling splendor.
That's the case today.
It's obviously early February, but the temperature in the evening is still as high as 55 degrees Fahrenheit (13 degrees Celsius). I don't feel the coldness and desolation of winter at all. Instead, I feel like strolling on the beach and enjoying the leisure and comfort of the twilight. This also makes all the fans start to He cheered and shouted, as if he had escaped from the world he lived in, drifting to another paradise, enjoying a moment of madness.
"We are nine! We are warriors!"
"The Baltimore Ravens charge together, put that football on the line, spread their claws and fly high, brave the thorns with pride on their shoulders, fight! Fight! Fight!"
"We are nine! We are warriors!"
"Soar to the sky with black wings, show your majesty with all your heart, for Baltimore and Maryland! You will soar towards victory!"
"We are nine! We are warriors!"
The cheers of the San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Ravens alternated with each other, and they clashed without giving in. The collision of hard bridges and hard horses filled the entire Mercedes-Benz Superdome with fierce sparks, and even the skyline was blazing. The sunset was eclipsed.
The Baltimore Ravens are singing the team's anthem, "Baltimore Fight Hymn."
Among the five major European football leagues, the sight of fans singing loudly to cheer for their team is truly spectacular, but such a scene is very rare in the NFL. Team songs are not a widely popular thing. A very small number of teams have officially composed songs, but even then, fans rarely sing them—or even remember the lyrics.
In fact, no coincidence.
In the United States, even the national anthem is rarely sung correctly. Firstly, there are too many lyrics, which is a challenge for any singer; secondly, the ups and downs of the melody are very strange, and the degree of crossover from bass to treble is so great that even a professional singer may not be able to do it. control.
This is no joke. At the beginning, Lu Ke also suspected that this was a joke. He couldn't believe that someone would go out of tune or forget the words when singing the national anthem - not a tone-deaf amateur singer, but a professional singer who performs professionally on formal occasions. There is still no way to avoid the tragic fact of being out of tune.
On YouTube, there is even a national anthem embarrassment special, which includes the scenes of car accidents at various events or performances.
Just last month, at the end of January 2013, the current president successfully completed his re-election after the four-year general election. At the presidential inauguration ceremony, Beyoncé was invited to attend the performance and sang the national anthem live, but However, she chose to lip-sync, and as a result, it was revealed that she was criticized by the media and fans.
The problem is that Beyoncé clearly knows that she cannot escape the glare of the public, but she still chooses to lip-sync because professional singers have been in deep trouble when singing the national anthem at countless nationally broadcast NFL night games. She has not forgotten. The lyrics were completely out of tune, and even the sound was broken. Those scenes were really unbearable to watch.
The day before the Super Bowl was officially held, Beyoncé attended the official press conference. She gave a domineering counterattack. As soon as she appeared, she made the whole audience stand up and sang the national anthem acapella on the spot. Her performance was perfect; after singing, Beyoncé looked proud. He asked the reporter, "Do you have any more questions?"
Later, Beyoncé also responded, admitting to lip-syncing at the presidential inauguration and explaining why:
She is a perfectionist and will do her best in every performance. However, recently for the Super Bowl rehearsal, she did not have time to cooperate with the band at the inauguration ceremony because the program that day was live broadcast. In order to show respect and avoid mistakes, she only Lip-syncing was chosen. And at the next Super Bowl, she will perform live throughout the event.
To put it simply, even the national anthem is wrong, let alone the team anthem? Therefore, there are not many teams willing to compile team anthems, and fans willing to sing team anthems are even rarer.
But today, the Baltimore Ravens fans came well prepared and sang loudly in unison. Their iron-blooded fighting temperament burst through the melody and musical notes, competing against the San Francisco 49ers' disciplined and powerful cheering chants. The Superdome immediately fell into a turbulent turmoil.
Singing and harmonizing, coming and going, it was so lively.
Ryan Baldwin was sitting in his wheelchair, looking greedily and eagerly at the sea of red and purple blending in front of him. Everything he saw with his eyes, heard with his ears, and felt with his body was so strange yet so familiar, and everything about him was Every cell began to cheer and scream.
He's coming, he's finally coming! He finally stood on the Super Bowl stage! After waiting and waiting, the day has finally arrived!
Take a deep breath, even the slightly salty air is sweet, as if you can smell the surge of Jin Ge's iron blood. No words or calls are needed, and he can't help but start to get excited.
"Ryan! Hey, you're here!"
"Welcome, Ryan! Let's fight for the Super Bowl together!"
"Ryan! Gold! I also brought gold here today!"
"Oh ho ho! Look who is here!"
"The fight never stops, Ryan, the fight never stops!"
The Baldwin brothers had just arrived at the Superdome parking lot. They didn't even need to go inside the stadium. The nine people coming and going began to cheer and shout. Everyone raised their fists in the air and celebrated wildly. Some familiar faces, some unfamiliar faces His eyebrows are different, but what remains consistent is the red jersey on his body and the excited smile on his face.
Regardless of whether they knew each other or not, they all opened their warm arms and firm shoulders to welcome Ryan's return, and the bright light flashing in their eyes was as spectacular as the stars in the sky.
Long time no see.
It has been five months since he last arrived to watch a game. For other people, five months is even less than half a year, just a part of a long life; but for Ryan, it feels like a world away, and he has almost forgotten what the scene is like.
At this moment, looking at the faces in front of him, he returned to his friends again! Then, Ryan burst into laughter.
Jonathan was standing behind the wheelchair, holding the armrests with both hands. He was both relieved and worried, but didn't know what to say——
On the one hand, they are worried about Ryan's condition. The doctor repeatedly emphasized that there is no problem in going out to watch the game. After all, people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis do not have to worry about infection. However, you still need to pay attention at the game site. Once you fall, the problem may be more troublesome. After all, the crowd It was still too much; on the other hand, I was delighted with Ryan's smile and the team's victory. They were finally on the stage of the Super Bowl!
The worry about gains and losses made Jonathan restless and unable to settle down.
"Don't worry, Ryan is in good condition now. I'll always be by your side." Kate Wiggins, who was standing aside, seemed to notice Jonathan's uneasiness, showed a bright smile, and raised her voice to comfort him.
Kate finally came. In order to take care of Ryan, but also for Ryan's date.
Now, standing at the Superdome, Kate also deeply felt the shock rolling in. Before she could even take a step forward, her body began to tremble slightly.
Ryan raised his head and looked at Jonathan and Kate. The bright smile on his face was as bright as the rising sun, and then he shouted loudly, "The fight never stops! The fight never stops!"
The voice was still a little vague at the beginning, but gradually became louder and louder as he shouted, and his vitality burst out, infecting everyone around him.
Kate couldn't help but laugh heartily, and shouted, "The battle never stops!"
Jonathan looked at the two people helplessly, and the shouts began to attack one after another. In the end, he had no choice but to...join them, "The battle never stops!"
This sentence seemed to have magic power, awakening the vitality in the cells bit by bit, and the emotions began to rise steadily, making the whole person jump up and join the carnival without any transition.
The songs of the Baltimore Ravens fans, "Climbing through the thorns" and "Flying high", could still be heard in my ears. However, those fragmented words could not stop the resonance between the nine people. Amidst the calls, they gradually found After reaching each other, the team began to grow stronger and stronger, and the sound became more and more powerful.
"We are! Nine!"
"We are! Warriors!"
The surging red ocean was slowly devouring the purple forest, and even the sunset glow that spread across the sky was eclipsed.
Vincent Camp walked against the current in the sea of people and finally arrived at the agreed place, but did not see the Baldwin brothers, which made him feel at a loss——
Inviting Ryan to attend the Super Bowl was Lu Ke's promise, so Vincent made a special trip to receive Ryan and led them to the VIP room to watch the game.
But now, the parking space is found, where are the people?
Taking a deep breath, Vincent raised his voice and asked, "Have you seen Ryan Baldwin? That's the one..." There is no need for Vincent to continue asking, every fan wearing a red jersey of the 49ers He was able to give guidance smoothly, and he actually moved forward slowly like this, and it didn't take much effort to see Ryan who was cheering.
Involuntarily, Vincent also murmured, "We are warriors."
