They were just having fun and not booing the anthem or anything about it, it was no big deal.

Kinda classless regardless of the intent.

During the first quarter there was this typical LA douche that was sitting courtside talking on his cell phone, standing up waving at the camera. They must have told him to leave or something because he didn't last too long there.

Yep, and I also can't stand the "home of the Chiefs" idiocy either.

I can't stand anyone changing the words or booing during the anthem. I especially hate it when a mom or dad is just walking around a concourse at a sports event with little kids. It would be a great moment for them to stop, remove their hat, place their hand over their heart, and teach their kid some respect for the flag and our country.

Its the national freaking anthem. Typically sung at sporting events to honor those people at Iwo jima and many others for that matter. It is a slap in the face to whatvit stands for and shows an extreme lack of class! End of story!

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you are young.

Not an excuse regardless of age. Based in that LA crowd I'm sure there were many older people partaking

What a crock. In this country you are allowed to speak your mind and say what you wish without retribution. And that includes singing the anthem or not. The men who sacrificed did so for just those rights. That a few laker fans booed the play on words for "Rockets red glare" was not in anyway shape or form a slap in the face to any veterans that have sacrificed for us. That you get your panties in a wad and blow it way out of proportion simply cause its the hated "Laker fans" is.
