Have you ever watched someone perform the National Anthem at a Jumbo Shrimp game and thought, “I could do that”? Well, here’s your chance. The Minor League Baseball team is holding open auditions for individuals or groups who want to perform at a home game this season. (There are 75 home games on the schedule this year, so there are plenty of slots to fill.) Auditions are the evening of Feb. 11 at VyStar Ballpark, but first you’ll need to apply. Fill out the application and email it to Abby Decker at abby@jaxshrimp.com. Good luck!
