MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (KDKA) -- When technical troubles interrupted the national anthem at the West Virginia University basketball game Saturday afternoon, the crowd started to sing out.

Sports reporter Anjelica Trinone tweeted Saturday that the national anthem singer's microphone went out while she was performing.

Instead of waiting for the audio troubles to be corrected, the crowd began singing themselves.

In the video, you can hear the performer's microphone going in and out as the crowd sings.

The Mountaineers ended up beating Kansas State 89-51.
