My Leontyne Price story:

A friend and I were standing outside the Four Seasons in Boston waiting for some rock person. Leontyne Price walks out the front door and I tell my friend who she was. You could not miss her hair. We walked up to her and I asked her for an autograph. Her response - 'You want mine?'. Me - 'Well of course, I know who you are.' I guess she was surprised that two 20-30 something Caucasian guys wearing t-shirts and jeans knew who she was. She happened to be in town to receive an honorary degree from Berklee College of Music.

My wife (then GF) and I saw her at Symphony Hall in Boston in a solo concert in 1982 or so. Technically she may have been past her prime at that point, but she was still ethereal

By the way, she is now 97.

Smokey Robinson did an amazing rendition but I don't remember if it was Super Bowl or World Series. Started with God Bless America and transitioned into the Star Spangled Banner.
