National anthem on the radio every day at noon

The guys on the other side if the wall from me listen to the local country station. Every day at noon the station plays the national anthem. But the guys work through it everyday. I don't know what to think about that.

Opinions?

 

Do you stand?

 

I think it's great that the radio station plays the anthem.

 

I don't. It's in a different shop..I can hear it through the wall? Am I supposed to? Should I erect a flag? Ask them to turn it off? This is what I'm getting at.

 

I have no problem with out being played.

 

There's a country station back home that does the same. I've never thought about it, but I guess technically you should stand. But do you stand when it's played at a sporting event on tv? What if you're driving?

The one around here that does it always plays that Alabama song "40 hour week for a living" right after.

 

I feel like the appropriate answer is....I kneel.. Lol

 

I would expect people to stand for the anthem when
it is played in a ceremonial fashion, I don't think
you can expect everyone to stand when it is played on the radio.

 

At the track, and sporting events..yes. hat off, stand, face the flag, hand over heart. I go to virtually zero sporting events. I don't think the anthem was played at summit from what I remember.. Loudon for sure. Can't recall other tracks.

I don't to ever listen to the radio when I'm driving.

Hmmm.... Only watch football usually. They usually show it on TV. But I don't stand.

 

Do you think playing it every day at noon represents any kind of ceremony?

 

You’re in the home of the anthem......... what’s the issue?

 

No. Of course, anyone who feels the urge
to stand can do so.

 

I tried to make it to the harbor to shoot bottle rockets at ft McHenry...too far and slow now.

I went to Mission Barbecue once during a lunch break, they played the anthem and everything stopped. I didn't go back, at least not during that 12 noon time slot.

 

92.5 plays it everyday.

i enjoy it.

 

What to do needs to be explained to an adult?

There's a video of military kids playing on a playground when out of nowhere, they start playing colors.....no adults in sight but those dang kids knew exactly what to do to pay their respects....pretty damn cool.

 

So you didn't go back because of national anthem is playing and you don't have few minutes to wait!? WTF

 

Situations are all unique. Standing and facing the music when their is no flag when it is coming out of 4 corners of the car or even a dozen speakers in a restaurant would be problematic to say the least.

 

It's my right. I was on company/lunch time
