NFL Opera

If you watch American football with the sound off, what you'll see is a lot of people yelling and screaming, dancing, and gesturing wildly. I believe that's because they can't hear a thing. There is also a sports game involved, but that is a relatively small part of the broadcast. In the hands of a talented video editor, all that yelling can be converted into a rather interesting opera performance. The latest one is courtesy of the crew at The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. But it's not exactly a new idea. Here's an NFL opera from ten years ago. Football players singing opera will never not be funny, even for people who say they hate opera. Or football. (via reddit)
