Only in international tournaments they do that in Holland and many other lands.
And than you see the players mumbling cause 75% doesn't know the lyrics.
And nobody cares, cause 75% of the viewers don't know the lyrics also.

Here in the US they play the anthem before any professional sporting event. It's kind of funny to me that people are so pissed off. If you watch the game on TV during the anthem you see people in the stands talking, eating nachos, drinking beer, laughing, and the players are often looking at each other, looking around, etc. Many of the people are doing anything but looking at the flag and standing at attention. Nobody seemed to care then.
