Evidently some outdated stanza was played that has Nazi ties and the German player flipped out. Does anyone know what it says in that version that makes it so deplorable? The female German tennis player said its the worst thing that has ever happened to her.

Obviously, apologies were issued...

hmmm... they need to focus on making themselves better, rather than giving their opinion on shit, coz quite frankly no one gives a fuck

did Bird or J West complain about such horseshit? hell no they didn't, they just focused on themselves and got better and better 😎

I feel with this incident, and the new president in Germany (who dislikes Trump) that I may have to rethink my Oktoberfest trip this year.  :-\

Can't imagine the American freakout if wrong anthem was played.

No one plays nazi anthem by accident though.
