The Chicago Cubs have stayed true to their traditions by playing the national anthem before every game. John Vincent, a native of Illinois, gained national attention during the 2016 World Series when he performed the anthem at Wrigley Field. He also has worked with Special Olympics Illinois, singing at State Virtual Summer Games and meeting with the teams of Special Olympics Unified Champion Schools. He also has appeared on all major television networks in Chicago, promoting equality and respect. And his voice is legendary.
The Chicago Cubs’ national anthem was performed tonight by John Vincent. The singer has worked with Mike Ditka for 15 years and has a great voice.

Despite the Cubs’ recent history, the anthem still holds a special place in Chicago. In 1917, the National Anthem was played during the seventh inning stretch of a Cubs game. During the anthem, a Navy player snapped to attention, but he later rejoined the band for “Big Four” shows in 2010 and 2011. In 2011, he helped inspire a new wave of creativity with his debut album, ‘The American Dream’.
