Country music legend Reba McEntire set social media ablaze with an epic rendition of the National Anthem at Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The performance was completed with a military flyover before the two teams met for the coin toss.<\/p>\n
McEntire\u2019s rendition with widely met with praise on social media despite some minor audio issues.<\/p>\n
\u201cReba killed it,\u201d wrote ex-NFL punter turned football pundit Pat McAfee.<\/p>\n
\u201cPost Malone and Reba McIntrye both killed that. And, by the way, no player in the NFL that I\u2019m aware of still kneels for the anthem. No one here on either team,\u201d said Clay Travis. \u201cIt\u2019s pretty amazing how that trend just completely vanished. And how ratings have set all time records since it ended.\u201d<\/p>\n
