Quote:The Montreal fans are, well, French. They don't know a thing about class. It's always the fans in Montreal who boo the American anthem (especially in playoffs), and year after year it's the same thing.
Dont generalize the french, You dont know if some of the english were booing too in the stadium ,montreal is a diverse city with alot of nationalities there is quite alot of Arabs for example. Americans hate the french because they associate us with snubism which is really just a stereotype. After 9/11 I know all canadians english and french were very sympathetic toward the U.S and there was no booing then.It was the war in Iraq that changed peoples view on the U.S.
Don cherry is a racist it is no secret he hates the french.
