Summary
Canadian soccer fans booed the American flag during the pre-match ceremony at the 2026 FIFA World Cup in Toronto. The crowd, largely in favor of the home country, showed respect to Bosnia-Herzegovina fans but jeered the US flag. The boos were not limited to a small group, with many in attendance participating. This is not the first time Canadian fans have booed the US national anthem or flag.
Our Reading
The habit gets a new name.
Booing the American flag is a thing now. Canadian soccer fans are leading the charge. They booed the US flag during the World Cup pre-match ceremony. No surprise, really. They’ve booed a 15-year-old girl singing the Star Spangled Banner before. Booing is their love language.
They reserve their cheers for their own country and, surprisingly, Mexico. Who knew?
It’s not about the game; it’s about the drama.
Booing is the new sportsmanship.
Canada has a special talent for booing.
