    Kane Kalas (yes, THAT Kane Kalas) sung the National Anthem at the first 2021 Phillies home game

    Apparently he does this for every home opener.

    Why? Because his dad was Harry Kalas, who was a beloved announced for the team from 1971-2009. Harry died on the job during a Nationals/Phillies game, while in the press box prior to the start of the game. He was 73, and his cause of death was heart failure.

    Kane's brother, Todd Kalas, is currently an announcer for the Astros. His other brother, Brad, is an actor. Kane is much younger than his two siblings, who were born in the 60s. Kane is only 31 years old, and his dad was 53 when he was born.

    This dude is filthy rich off of crypto. Nothing to do with the story, just thought I’d throw that in there.

    That makes two of us.

    Was trying to decide between professional poker or becoming a professional opera singer early in life from article I googled. Interesting kid.
