Pennsylvania Cancels All National Anthems Before Hockey Games [POLL]

183 High School hockey teams have been advised to eliminate the National Anthem before hockey games because ice time is to expensive. Is this un-American?

Ed Sam, commissioner of the Pennsylvania interscholastic Hockey League has ordered that all National Anthems be canceled before hockey games because it cost around $300 an hour to rent the ice, and sometimes more. Sam says "We are recommending the national anthem not be played or sung or whatever it is, it has absolutely nothing to do with patriotism at all. That’s the furthest thing from the truth.”

Every game being played whether it be hockey, basketball, soccer, lacrosse, etc. plays the National Anthem before hand. Now all of the sudden it is to expensive to sing the National Anthem. Some say it is un-American others see the reasoning behind it. What are your thoughts?
