Frankfurt NFL fans beautifully sang Take Me Home, Country Roads during the Chiefs-Dolphins game

Sunday’s AFC battle between the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins was noteworthy beyond a wild ending. It was the first-ever NFL game in Frankfurt, Germany — giving fans in the Rhine-Main a chance to finally watch some live professional football close to home.

To commemorate the momentous occasion, fans at the Frankfurt Stadium took time to start singing John Denver’s famous melody, “Take Me Home, Country Roads,” together in a beautiful display of community with sports. When we talk about the appeal of attending live sporting events, it’s these sorts of wonderful moments where everyone is having fun together at the same time.

It’s truly special:

I get goosebumps every time I press play on that clip. Some things in football are just bigger than what’s actually happening on the field.
