1991 NHL All-Star Game - National Anthem in Chicago

The All-Star Game took place at Chicago Stadium in the middle of the Gulf War. Already known to be loud during the anthem, the stadium went berserk in the name of USA.

@HawksStanleyCup For this year's Super Bowl national anthem, I say bring back the Black Eyed Peas but drown out their blunders with thousands of Blackhawk fans.

My wife and I made the banner " No Flag Burners Here" ...God Bless The USA,,and we hold that day as the proudest moment of our lives as Americans.

I was stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina when this happened. The troops had been deployed in the Persian Gulf for a short time, and General Norman Schawrtzkopf said he wasn't sure how the American public would support "Operation Desert Shield". According to a book about the old Chicago Stadium, the general was assured of American's support. The general and then-Blackhawks owner Bill Wirtz met shortly after the troops returned, and shed tears over this anthem.
