A comment on the sales page says it's "one size fits all" so I'd guess a L or XL.

As someone who has sung the National Anthem a few times for various events, I can verify it is an extremely difficult song to "perform". It spans almost two octaves. That's why so many people do it poorly.

They, however, sounded fantastic.

Nice voice!

Too bad they didn't show up in character - wheelchair, football jersey, cheerleader uniform, etc.

Agreed that Amber did a terrific job. You could really tell they were all thrilled to be there.
It was in Philadelphia. Of course they were booed.

It was weird hearing them without Auto-tune.

You can get the Glee DVD in-stores at Wal-Mart for the same price without ordering it online. Also, the shirt doesn't come with the DVD. It is a mail-away offer and the shirt takes a few weeks to get to you. It is a red shirt with the Glee Logo in a faded-out yellow on the front. It is a Large, but is a pretty small Large; also, it's 100% Cotton, which means it will likely shrink.

lol. I wonder if there will be backstory on the show about why Artie is in a wheelchair. Maybe the writers will let remain a mystery like on Doug with Patty's wheelchair bound dad.

Sounded OK. Maybe I'm the only one who thinks that the national anthem should be sung without melisma?

I'm hoping that he turns out to be physically healthy on the show, but "chooses" to use a wheelchair for some reason. Maybe pulling a scam on the school or whatever.

I didn't watch it (World Series) but that's the least the organizers could do after knocking out two weeks of Glee!
