VANCOUVER — BC Lions receiver Josh Pearson took centre stage in their Week 15 matchup with the Calgary Stampeders. However, it wasn’t for a big-play or a highlight reel catch.
Instead the BC receiver showcased his talents in a different, but equally artistic manner. Prior to kickoff Pearson took the microphone and sang the Canadian national anthem in front of his teammates and the over 19,000 Lions fans in attendance. Based on the reaction from the crowd and his teammates, it’s safe to say Pearson hit all the right notes.
