    A third fun fact: The Star-Spangled Banner wasn't our national anthem until 1931.

    Guess the Knights should stick to what they do best: running youth free throw competitions.

    -eighth grade Knights of Columbus state free throw champion

    Actually, it's Grace, as delivered by Aunt Bethany.

    EDIT: Dammit, it's still the Star Spangled Banner, even if delivered by Aunt Bethany. I suck.

    I don't think there's a goddarn reason to have the anthem before sporting events.

    I don't say the pledge because I don't believe the last line is true.

    I remember when they played the anthem before movies at the local theatres.

    Seriously?

    Just because two words, under God, are in the Pledge?
