    Reuters poll:

    85% 'almost always' stand for the anthem.

    74% place hand on heart.

    58% say pro athletes should be *required* to stand.


    aaaaaaaaand here's the BEST part

    It is nonsense. Even with the GGG/Canelo fight you have anthems and not only the anthems but the US anthem too. So, we now have to have an anthem for the place where the robbery is about to be carried out? Why have an anthem for fighters anyway? As a fighter I would not be fighting for Queen and country either. What about my non-British supportes like Walrus? No anthems. You know how some fighters are awkward over nonsense like coming out first? Well, it is about time a fighter refused to bother with anthems before a fight. It is cheap nonsense designed to prey upon primitive feelings. When I hear the British anthem I think of Tories, food bands and hedge funders. I won't celebrate that. Good on rich people deciding that they have a conscience after all.

    @ghandi how is the South Korean anthem? Do they thank America in it.

    I wouldn't know. I have little time for anthems unless they are sung by an Indie Rock God.
