Just for the record, RPI is not alone in this. As a matter of fact
I believe RPI "borrowed" using the nation Anthem from the other
Red team in the ECAC. Additionally, now Clarkson uses
the word "night" ("knight") and Union goes so far as to
chime in on O say can "U" see.

That said, I agree that this trivializes the anthem and is in
poor taste.
