The Philadelphia Flyers had Kate Smith who inspired them to victory by singing God Bless America.
Wilmington has Lauren Azevedo.
A champion singer for a championship hockey team.
What a way to carry that high note.
GO LAUREN !!!!!!!!!!!!
If the voters decide to get rid of the current hack selectmen who do nothing but rubber stamp the wasting of taxpayer money I'd love for Lauren to sing God Bless America at the new selectmen swearing in.

Must you bring your selectman grudge into everything?!? You should have just stopped at being happy for Lauren!! Lauren and I were friends while we were both in high school. I personally do not appreciate you using this article as yet another soapbox for you to spread your agenda.

Later, from December 11, 1969,[6] through the early 1970s, the playing of Smith singing the song before many of home games of the National Hockey League's Philadelphia Flyers brought it renewed popularity, as well as a reputation for being a "good luck charm" to the Flyers,[6] long before it became a staple of nationwide sporting events.[6] The Flyers even brought Smith in to perform live before Game 6 of the 1974 Stanley Cup Finals on May 19, 1974, and the Flyers won the Cup that day.[6][7]
