National Anthem Booed in Washington, D.C.

Today's Washington Times sports section carries a short article, "United Faces Hostile Fans at Home". This caught my eye: "Tonight's match is the second annual Hispanic Heritage Festival at RFK. Last year, 23,704 turned out and promptly booed the national anthem before the game." The D.C. United soccer team is based in Washington, D.C. Perhaps its time for an American Heritage Festival in our nation's capitol.
