3. "country music artist...who sang the national anthem at a wrestling match"

There’s a lot to process in that sentence.

I’ve never understood this idea that athletic events (other than the Olympics) are somehow a patriotic celebration, but a college wrestling match seems especially low on that continuum.

There aren’t a lot of country singers for whom I would use the term artist, but there are a few—however, it’s highly unlikely they would be available to sing the national anthem at a college wrestling match.

This seems like such a trivial thing for Patel to attend at all, much less use an FBI jet to get there. I guess there’s no danger of this “artist” performing at the Ryman or Country Music Awards anytime soon?

I saw a picture of her and she is quite attractive. Perhaps this is the most attractive woman that was ever interested in Patel and he’s pulling out all the stops he’s currently got to try to impress her.
