This is the most patriotic approach. Country is about freedom, so do what you
Don't believe me if you wish but it certainly happened. Was the famous UK v UF game where Cal told us to stand the last what 11 minutes or something and we had a big comeback win.
Look, I do stand, and I wasn't being disrespectful at all, I was just in a rush to get to my seat and it had already started, so rather than finish what I was doing I scrambled to turn around and stand up as to not be disrespectful. I had just forgotten I had a hat on due to the hustle and bustle.
Personally, I don't mind standing and whatever traditions come with it, I just find it ridiculous how strongly others care and many would agree it should be compulsory.
