Final thought: Given everything happening between the two countries right now, and what the US president is openly threatening to do, Canadian fans are being extraordinarily reserved and polite if the worst they do is make a disapproving noise at a song.

A few thoughts on Canadian fans booing the US anthem:

Thought 1: If the Americans win on Saturday and/or win the whole tournament, it will be because they were the best team and deserved it, and that will be true no matter who tries to pretend that Canadian fans somehow influenced the outcome.
