Must see: Boston Bruins fans take over national anthem

Think they could just bring the suspect to the Bruins game tonight? I bet that crowd would know what to do with him.

There was extra security at tonight’s Boston Bruins/Buffalo Sabres game, but that didn’t stop the people of Boston from turning out in force to support the home team. Despite the freshness of the bombings, Bostonians were ready to come together in a defiant rendition of the national anthem.

Thank you, Bruins. #bostonstrong pic.twitter.com/tVUtFsjsNt

Rene Rancourt leads into the anthem, stops singing to conduct the crowd and let them sing… And I'm bawling. #Bruins

Excuse me why I get all misty eyes during the #Bruins opening. Anthem to follow I am assuming. Great tribute video right now.
