Tas Melas, hand over heart as he belts out the Greek National Anthem
It takes a young man with a big heart, a lot of love and pride for his (or most likely his parents' ) motherland and a great deal of courage to belt out the Greek National Anthem during a live NBA TV broadcast, but that is exactly what Tas Melas, one of our Global Greeks from Toronto in Canada did!
Tas breaks into his own very personal, and very public, rendition of the Greek National Anthem as he and his co-presenters of the Starters are watching the NBA Pass League of the Night. A game they have billed as the Greek Game of the Night, it is between the Grizzlies and the Bucks and three of the players, Kostas Koufos, Nick Calathes and Yiannis Adetokunbo, are from Greece.
Inspired and inspiring to watch, Tas Melas stands up for Greece and shows us all the way to go.
Greece's politicians and leaders please take note!
One of the most moving things we've seen, it confirms our belief in our Global Geeks and gives us a lot of hope for the future!
Just watch the expression on this young man's face as he sings...it says it all!
Bravo, Tas! Polla Bravo!
At Global Greek World, We ♥ Greece...and it shows!
