I never notice that around here. But, there are a few who act like you're commiting treason if you don't drop everything, stand up, take off your hat, and stare at the middle of the infield at 5PM.
They should play the thing at noon. Funny how they blare it upstairs in the dining room - but of course - in the table game section and slots parlor there is no anthem. Wouldn't want to distract the mindless zombies from their stupid ass machines.
How I've only manged a single meltdown during the national anthem over the course of about four years - is truly a testament to my laid back personality.
