Remember New Year’s Eve 2019? As the clock struck midnight and you toasted 2020 with your friends and loved ones, maybe you’ve envisioned some of the things that you will do in the coming year ahead: take a vacation, start a new hobby, get a new job, etc. Whatever it is, however, most likely that it hasn’t happened yet.

Years are usually memorialized at their conclusion, but several months into 2020, this very unusual year has been quite crazy and exhausting.

We can also see the news cycle spin into overdrive with extreme events such as the ongoing pandemic, quarantines, and more recently, the wildfires.

The Oregon wildfire has been recorded as one of the worst, as more and more areas and citizens are affected by the fire. Truly enough, Gov. Kate Brown said, “Typically, fires consume about 500,000 acres a year in Oregon. But in just one week, “we burned over a million acres of beautiful Oregon.”

Although this may sound heartbreaking, a crew of Oregon firefighters gives light to the situation by taking a moment to rest and belt out a song.

Sprawled on a smoky street, a team from the Grizzly Firefighters from The Dalles, Oregon had just finished a 14-hour shift of extinguishing the roaring flames of the Lionshead Fire near the community of Detroit. As they rest, the courageous men sang a parody of “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” using firefighting terms for lyrics.

Take me out to the fire.

Take me out to the line.

Bring me some sawyers and hazel hoes.

I don’t care if I ever get home.

In the video, you can even hear him say, “Alright, let’s see if we can make you go viral. Ready, go!”

“Yes my house was in danger,” Hiner told CNN. “Thankfully, we made it out OK.”
