Whitney's Historic Anthem

Sam Parr shares a story about Whitney Houston's iconic Super Bowl national anthem performance.

"One of my favorite videos - and I'm the type of guy who cries during the Star Spangled Banner if it's a good one - is the 1991 version with Whitney Houston. It's one of the best videos of all time.

The performance was so impactful that the Library of Congress has this compilation of the 50 greatest moments in American history, and that Super Bowl performance made the list, which is a really big deal."
