Can anyone please advise on how one can get to sing the national anthem before the Sixers games?

Mate, do it any time you like, I do.
AUSTRALIAN ALL LET US REJOICE, FOR WE ARE YOUNG & FREE ............
In fact, I sing it in row DD Northern stand at every home game, with only the help of 1 other person & they have a microphone.
The words are lit up on the Western LED stats board & Australian Idol's hyped for more entrants. James Spargo got singled out in the crowd recently for his contribution, it could be you next year. Although Wes won it for us, his hit's been around for a while & still doing well, I heard on the radio this morning that some interstaters are joking that the gloss is fading & regrettably he's now a used Carr.
C'mon Adelaide, let's all get involved.

You obviously know the words well enough DDFan or you are bullshitting us all (again) I dont think the words have been up on the screen for a couple of season - at least season anyway.

I know the words bluey, so I haven't had to fall back on the Western screen.
Do you know which end is West?

Forget your compass, I'm a massively strong chick magnet, so you're bound to get a bad reading.
The west is where the Pud bust is, or the end where the general public enter the stadium through the turnstiles.

Australians all let us reSOJoyce
for we are young & free
We've golden soil and wealth for toil
Our home is GIRT (WTF) by sea

Those splendid lyrics don't make it on our state of the art LED panel? That cannot be right.

Our land abounds in nature's gifts
Of beauty rich and rare
In history's page let every stage
Advance Australia Fair

Brings a tear to your eye.

Google: Adam Hills Australian Anthem

Now there is a great version of Advance Australia Fair (and an explanation of the word 'girt' for those who require it).

Thought Peter Goers' attempt at it was quite amusing, though soundly booed at the time.

Hey Coady, I sing it quietly, I'm usually too puffed from screaming my shot lungs out during the player intros. I get enough out for nearby fans to either smile, or give the WTF. : )

Memory lane. Anyone remember Bob Francis getting booed for the American flag bandanna when singing the anthem (rode in on his chopper)?
