TNT play-by-play man Kevin Harlan appeared to reprimand someone off-camera for eating during the National Anthem before Thursday night's Game 6 of the Los Angeles Clippers-Golden State Warriors playoff series.
Harlan and color commentator Reggie Miller were apparently filming a pre-game segment when they realized that people were beginning to stand for the singing of "The Star-Spangled Banner". Miller looked at Harlan and pointed up at the scoreboard, at which point Harlan calmly stated "I'm going to stand at attention if you don't mind."
TNT cut to a graphic of the McDonald's "Winning Ingredients" (i.e. keys to the game) for the Clippers and Warriors, while keeping the audio on. At that point, Harlan seemed to get irritated by someone who had the nerve to be eating as the National Anthem was about to start:
"You don't eat during the anthem. Would you get some couth, for God's sakes?"No word yet who Harlan was reprimanding.
H/T AA.
