Throwback to Cody Glass' first hattrick, but he was surprised by crowds' response
In March, Cody Glass experienced a special moment after scoring his first career hat trick for the Nashville Predators in a 5-1 win over the Colorado Avalanche. During a postgame interview with Bally Sports South, the crowd's cheers were so loud that Glass could barely hear himself speak.
"When I wanted to talk, I couldn't hear my own voice," Glass said, "I don't know if the video captures just how loud it actually was."
Glass paused during the interview to take in the overwhelming support, wiping away tears as the fans gave him a long-standing ovation.
"That was something I can't even dream up," Glass said. "Scoring a hat trick, I can dream up. But getting that kind of response from the crowd was well beyond anything ... That was cooler than scoring three goals, to be honest."
The interview quickly went viral, with over a million views across social media platforms. Kara Hammer, the reporter interviewing Glass, said the crowd kept getting louder, and the moment is one she will never forget.
