Monday's Dump & Chase: The Texas National Team Comes To Town

I've never been to a Stars game…do they play the Texas anthem before or after the Star-Spangled Banner? For tonight at least, it seems like our anthem should go last, as the game is in this country, but who knows? Texas is a great nation…we should be careful to show the proper respect. Join us in the game thread later, won't you? Maybe we can sort this out.
