The National Anthem


Chicharito

Recommended Posts

Sorry members I have to rant for a minute. It’s seems every game a lot of people are not removing their hats. This includes you ladies you are not exempt from removing your head gear. For the love of your country stand remove your hats and honor this great country. Thanks !!!!

I thought only men removed hats.

 

Ditto.

 

More people in the stadium disrespect the anthem by pissing during it, buying food during it, smoking during it, drinking during it, etc etc etc, yet you never hear these folks get railed at by the woke patriotics.

I also notice the camera men and production crews wearing hats and not standing at attention during the anthem. 
 

If they don’t put down their cameras and mics and go to dead air the next time to honor America, I will throw my coffee maker into traffic, so help me god. 
 

That goes for you camera ladies too, you are not exempt.

Sadly, that's the real disrespect. I gotta admit it ... standing in line at the concession stand, off comes the cap and activity ceases for that minute or so. Walking back to my seat with a beer in one hand and a hot dog in the other? I stand respectfully looking toward the flag/flag on the monitor, but I don't go to all lengths to get that cap off my head. Just be a decent American (if you are one) and try not to judge.

I was in club seats and stayed indoors until after the anthem was played.  Most of the people were sitting at tables and didn't stand nor did they remove their hats.  I was surprised that even though we were at the game, most of the fans who stayed indoors through the anthem treated it like they were sitting at home and watching it on tv.

What makes America great is Americans are free to do (legally) as they please. It's called freedom.

Also starting to cheer before the anthem is over.

Good lord this gets old. People have the freedom to choose to remove it or not. It’s not your place to be offended by it. 

Sorry - not at all your place to decide what Chicharito gets offended at. Not at all.  

 

Having said that, it’s absolutely your choice to keep your hat on or remove it. 

 

Welcome to America.

Interesting isn’t it? They get offended by something, I point out it’s not their right to be offended by it, you chime in to tell me it’s not my place. 
 

My whole point is that it’s the individuals choice whether or not to take off the hat or not.

But it's MY choice as to whether or not they get offended.  Watch...

 

 

@Chicharito, you're an idiot.  Why don't you shut up and go away?  Take your ***** hat with you.

Serious question for NHL fans: do you take off your cap for O Canada? If no, what if O Canada follows the Star Spangled Banner .... your cap is already off, so do you politely refrain from putting it back on? What if you're Canadian, does the opposite apply?

LOL Canada can't even spell Oh.

Pretty sure the guy on the public address says, "please stand and remove your hats." I think all of this removing your hat stuff comes from distinguishing civilian from military. Military, in uniform with "caps" on are to salute when the national anthem is played. Might be old fashioned and more of a ceremonial thing than practical today. but that's my interpretation as a veteran. In my opinion, its waaayyyy more disrespectful to talk and socialize during the anthem, which happens a lot, than to not remove your hat.
