Chris Jones, a multi-time All Pro defensive tackIe with the Kansas City Chiefs, became one of the top trends on X Sunday when he appeared to tear up during Reba McEntire’s rendition of the national anthem at Super Bowl LVIII.
The broadcast of McEntire’s anthem received largely rave reviews on social media despite some slight audio issues.
It repeatedly cut between McEntire and troops depIoyed overseas in South Korea, as well as the Las Vegas dome, which was decorated with the American flag.
The broadcast also cut to a number of pIayers, including 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy and Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. Jones stole the show, however, as the national anthem appeared to make him emotional.
The Lasting Impact of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans: A Look at the Cowboy Icon’s Nine Children
Roy Rogers, the “King of the Cowboys,” and his wife, Dale Evans, the “Queen of the West,” were Hollywood legends, starring in over 100 films and “The Roy Rogers Show.” They raised a family of nine children, blending joy with tragedy.
Their children’s stories reflect the couple’s resilience. Cheryl Rogers, adopted in 1941, appeared in some of Roy’s films. Linda Lou, Roy’s biological daughter, now lives in California, surrounded by family. Roy Rogers Jr., known as “Dusty,” became his father’s manager and a musician.
Dale Evans and Roy had a daughter, Robin, who was born with Down syndrome and passed away before age two. Dale honored her in the book *Angel Unaware*. Dodie, adopted at seven months, married and became a grandmother. Sadly, Deborah, adopted during the Korean War, died in a bus accident at age 12, and Sandy Rogers, adopted after Robin’s death, choked to death at 18 in a military hospital.
Tom Fox, Dale’s son from her first marriage, became a school teacher and passed away in 2012.
Their story is one of “joy, tragedy, and enduring love,” a legacy that continues to inspire.
