With fans booing the US national anthem at NHL games in Canada, is this a sign of deeper issues beyond just sports rivalry? Is this a reflection of political tensions spilling over, or simply passionate fans expressing themselves? Where is the line between patriotic displays and politicizing sporting events? What impact could these displays have on the future of international sports competitions? Could we see a future where national anthems are removed from sporting events entirely? While a small poll suggests banning anthems isnt overwhelmingly popular, these recent events suggest a growing sentiment. What are your thoughts?
