Pfft. The British and the French have them beat. Others as well. The lyrics of the star spangled banner sounds like a completely different country than what the US actually is
I wouldn't call "God Save the King" 'stirring', although Beethoven thought well enough of it to write variations on it.

I like the French one and the old German one (written by Hayden).

The melody of "The Star Spangled Banner" is actually an old English drinking song

Winnipeg only has 8 back to backs?

What the flying F?
I think a lot of the back to back issue is arena availability. Since there is nothing in Winnipeg except hockey and blackflies (and they are in different seasons), scheduling is easier. :sarcasm:

That's only one of the reasons. Carolina ties with the Leafs with 16 back to backs, how do you explain that one? Busy college basketball schedule?

I was mostly just having a bit of fun at Winnipeg (and my sisters for living there).
