Oh, say did you see the dad who sang the national anthem at a Walmart?
James Fruit of Cleveland, Ohio, stopped into a Walmart in Osage Beach, Mo. while he was on vacation and ended up singing the national anthem for shoppers. He became a viral star when Walmart posted the video to its Facebook page.
Some people sing in the shower. Some people sing in the car.
James Fruits got caught singing in the flag aisle at Walmart and now he’s a viral sensation.
The father of three from Cleveland, Ohio, was vacationing in Missouri earlier this month when he visited the Walmart Supercenter in Osage Beach.
As he’s been known to do, he sang the national anthem where the American flags were displayed because he’s just that kind of guy. Other shoppers applauded. The folks at customer service heard him, too.
“Being in the heart of Missouri and being so close to the 4th of July, they loved it,” Fruits wrote on his Facebook page on July 8.
“So much so that the next thing I hear is a page over the intercom system: ‘Could the gentleman who sang the National Anthem please come to the customer service desk.’ ”
“When we heard the National Anthem wafting through the flag display aisle we just had to ask our customer to share that gift with the whole store using the intercom,” Walmart wrote on its Facebook page where it posted video of his performance, filmed by Fruits’ 15-year-old son, Malachi.
Yep. Walmart gave him the mic.
It’s been viewed more than 765,000 times since then.
National media outlets, from ABC News to “Inside Edition,” swarmed Fruits, 40, who now jokingly calls himself the “Walmart singer.”
