■ All persons in the Pit should observe the code of behavior for the presentation of all national anthems:
• Maintain a respectful silence;
• Stand, facing the flag. If there is no flag, look toward the video screen showing a flag; and • Hats off please.

As someone who's been doing color guard activities for over three years now, this has always been something that bothered me. We had exchange students from other countries on our team, but they were always respectful of the anthems. Of course, our team, myself included, could always be better at being respectful.
