I have been wondering for quite a few years now why the Anthem is only played before a game of football, soccer, basketball, etc. and from junior high to college to the pros.
An unpopular opinion for some I know, but I think it's silly to do so for almost every game I go to for those various sports and levels. Sure it seems appropiate for the Super Bowl, World Series, Olympics (especially the Olympics since it is the national teams & athletes), won't argue that. But at my nephews high school soccer game with 50 people there, just seemed like a forced tradition of some kind.
