Hey, dude. Seriously, what’s your problem?
You know I’m talking to you, Fellow who Starts Applauding and Yelling before the National Anthem is Over. Honestly, does that last “and the home of the brave” really seem that insignificant to you?
Perhaps the whole situation is proof of the lack of American fortitude. People are expected to stop talking about how horrendous the Yankees’ record is while chugging down their Budweisers for _a whole song?_ Impossible. There’s always that one guy who starts having boisterous conniptions after “O’er the la-aand of the free,” and then, like within a giant herd of sheep the identical actions spread throughout a ballpark like plight through a corn field. Before you know it, the performer of the National Anthem is drowned out by the spectators of the national past time and the patriotic flare of the events before a game is snuffed out by the drunken ravings of a bunch of overweight and balding men.
Perhaps we Americans need to work on our collective stamina.

the way i see it is that all the people yelling and screaming show great support for our country. would you rather everyone just stand through it and calmly sit down when its over? NO, let them show enthusiasm for their country.

The way I see it, the pledge was deemed unconstitutional, so as an american it is my duty not to stand for it. You know why? Because if i do then the communists have won.
