Nebraska snags viral yodeling kid to perform national anthem at spring game

Yodel-Ay-Hee-Huuuuuskers.

We’ve seen schools bring in rappers and 90’s music stars, among others, to help make their spring game more than a destination for football but Nebraska is making the move to really cash in on a viral sensation this year by bringing in acclaimed yodeler Mason Ramsey.

For those not caught up on the latest internet culture, Ramsey was caught yodeling at an Illinois Walmart last year and video of the song went viral to the point where the 12-year-old was invited on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and even given sets at the Grand Ole Opry and Coachella.

Now he’s taking his act to Big Red and will sing the national anthem prior to the game, which will be televised on Big Ten Network on Saturday afternoon at 2 p.m. ET.
