Editor’s note: This story was originally published before the 2019 MLS Cup. It got a bit of attention and I’m sure there were more people singing than normal, but it definitely wasn’t the full-stadium I had envisioned. The 2022 Concacaf Champions League final gives us another wonderful opportunity to pull this off and after seeing the coordinated singing of Pumas fans, I feel like we have even more reason to make this happen.
There are few things more powerful than a full stadium united in one voice. We’ve all seen this happen during the national anthem at Seattle Sounders matches.
