America’s Got Talent Season 19 winner Richard Goodall’s victory lap is still going strong!

On November 17, the famous singing janitor traded his work boots for basketball sneakers as he sang “The Star-Spangled Banner” during the Indiana Pacers home game against the Miami Heat. Fans and players alike were treated to a powerful national anthem performance:

“Indiana’s own Richard Goodall brought the house down with his rendition of the National Anthem today 🎤💙,” the team captioned.

“Brought the house down” is an understatement. Goodall blew the roof off the arena!

Donning a Pacers sweatshirt, Goodall didn’t treat fans with just one high note. No, he capped his national anthem performance with a handful of unbelievable high notes.

The 55-year-old’s powerhouse vocals that fueled his meteoric rise invoked Journey-esque comparisons throughout Season 19 – and that same stunning range was on full display inside Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

(For what it’s worth, Goodall can take credit for helping his hometown team win — the Pacers defeated the Heat handily, 119-110.)

And his performance has officially gone viral, surpassing 1 million views in a short time.

Singing the national anthem has been a rite of passage for AGT winners in recent years. Season 14 winner Kodi Lee recently kicked off the Los Angeles Lakers’ 2024-2025 basketball season, while Season 12 champion Darci Lynne took her talents to Oklahoma City before a 2024 Thunder game.

‘America’s Got Talent’ winner Richard Goodall to sing at annual Circle of Lights ceremony

America’s Got Talent Season 19 winner Richard Goodall will perform at the annual Circle of Lights holiday celebration on November 29.

The holiday tradition is presented by IBEW Local 481. Volunteers string more than 50 strands of lights — that’s more than 4,000 bulbs — around the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in downtown Indianapolis.

 

Goodall, a school janitor from Terre Haute, has booked a number of performances in Central and South Central Indiana since his AGT win in September. On Nov. 7, he performed the national anthem and the halftime show at the Indiana State men’s basketball season opener, and he’ll also perform at the Nov. 17 Indiana Pacers game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

That’s not all he’s got planned. Goodall announced on social media he’ll appear with comedian and AGT judge Howie Mandel at the Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in California on Dec. 28.
