Why do people boo our anthem?

Question

I find it soo insulting when Americans boo the Canadian national anthem at hockey games. I'm not generalizing all AMericans, cuz most cities don't, but for the ones that do, I think it shows NO class at all. They're not only booing the country that made the game... they're booing the nationality of most of the players on their own team. Why do they persist at booing a country they know nothing about... and the same country that made the game they are paying to watch? AGAIN, I realize this doesn't happen often, but when it does it really bothers me. It also happens on both sides of the border to, which also pisses me off. Why are some people so rude and ignorant?

Answer 1

I agree with you that it is very insensitive. I guess they do it because they do not like your country.
