Actor Kevin James Recreates Viral NASCAR Moment Before New York Mets Game
Back in 2007, |A|
actor Kevin James let |B|
it rip at the |C|
Daytona International Speedway while |D|
promoting his new film, |E|
"I Now Pronounce You |F|
Chuck & Larry." "I |G|
just got three things |H|
to say: God bless |J|
our troops, God bless |K|
America and gentlemen, start |L|
your engines," James yelled, |M|
getting progressively louder throughout |O|
his soliloquy. The video |P|
of James eruption resurfaced |Q|
online in the 2020s, |R|
going viral in short |S|
order. Now, 17 years |U|
after the fact, he |V|
decided he was ready |Y|
for round two. But |Z|
instead of running it |A|
back at the Daytona |B|
summer race, which is |C|
set to take place |D|
this coming Saturday, James |E|
took his talents back |F|
to Queens. James was |G|
tasked with saying "play |H|
ball" ahead of the |J|
New York Mets game |K|
against the Baltimore Orioles |L|
at Citi Field on |M|
Tuesday night. Rather than |O|
sticking to the script |P|
and simply reciting the |Q|
standard two-word phrase, James |R|
delivery followed another familiar |S|
structure. "God bless America, |U|
God bless our troops, |V|
God bless the New |Y|
York Mets and gentlemen, |Z|
lets play ball," James |A|
belted. The 59-year-old Long |B|
Island native, who starred |C|
in "King of Queens" |D|
from 1998 to 2007, |E|
was decked out head-to-toe |F|
in Mets gear during |G|
his performance. James didnt |H|
end up giving the |J|
Mets much good luck |K|
on Tuesday night, though. |L|
Even when |V| the Mets showed life |Y| by scoring four runs |Z| in the bottom of |A| the eighth, the Orioles |B| snuffed them out by |C| adding two insurance runs |D| in the top of |E| the ninth. New York |F| lost 9-5 and dropped |G| to 65-61 on the |H| year, including a 4-7 |J| record since Aug. 9.
