Puerto Rican recording artist Bad Bunny is getting slammed for a video clip that appears to show him remaining seated during the singing of “God Bless America” at the New York Yankees game Tuesday night.
The short clip, first shared with TMZ, reported as not having any common indicators of AI generation, includes the crowd singing “guide her,” which is part of the line “stand beside her and guide her.”
The U.S. Flag Code recommends standing, placing your hand over your heart, and facing the flag when “The Star-Spangled Banner” is sung, but it makes no similar recommendations for “God Bless America.” However, it is seen as a sign of respect to stand for the song during sporting events, and most individuals seated near Bad Bunny at the Yankees game are seen standing in the clip. The custom started after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, when MLB started playing “God Bless America” during the seventh-inning stretch to honor first responders, victims, and the military.

“”seated during the singing of “God Bless America” at the New York Yankees game Tuesday night.””
This is about a baseball game this week - not a Super Bowl game. There is nothing that requires standing for “God Bless America” and I haven’t understood why so many take their hats off and place their hands over their hearts at Braves baseball games when the great GA tenor sings “God Bless America.” Have to assume they believe “God Bless America” is our National Anthem.
Not everyone does it in the lineup and I think those are probably the ones who know it’s not required....
Same here. As I repeat ad nauseum—this country has an absolutely INSATIABLE apitite to be entertained.
This year, I will be proudly skipping my third StuporBowl in a row.
‘Seriously...Who thought this was a good idea’
Even kind of. The man is nauseatingly antiAmerican, and setting that aside, is divisive in every way.
Great job NFL!
“As I repeat ad nauseum—this country has an absolutely INSATIABLE apitite to be entertained.”
It is an addiction that spawned smartphone fixation and 24X7 earbuds. People are in dire need of just sitting quietly and being with their thoughts.
Probably a good way to make inroads into Spanish language markets, where they most popular sport is soccer followed by baseball.
It's already been demonstrated that the MAGA people who are most outraged by this are going to grumble and tune in regardless.
Trump will likely be in attendance. He was last year.
It doesn’t surprise me that male football fans are in to the Gay Bunny with their wives and kids going in for Tater Swuft.
While you are no doubt correct, he’s still an anti-American cross dressing faggot.
The question is, just who is the bigger POS, Bad Bunny or Roger Goodell?
We never watch any football, but make a point to watch the Kitten Bowl when it’s on during Super Bowl. And I want all the kittens.
” a three month old little girl kitten came upon my wife, crying. “
They know.
When we got up in the morning on July 5, 2011, we looked out the kitchen window. A feral mama had plopped herself on the sidewalk in front of the window, nursing three kittens. The invisible bubble over her head read, “They’re your problem now.” (We had been feeding mama on the porch for a few months, but didn’t know she was pregnant.)
So we added four to the three we already had - all indoors. We still have mama Darth-Ann, and her kitten Maris Crane. Every day, I miss all the others we’ve lost.
