Default How do you explain this one?

I saw the ad that lists different banners and signs for sale, and thought this one was cool.




I made the mistake of consulting my wife to ask her opinion and she is asking me what it means and to explain it.

I suggested it had to do with respect. I still got a blank look.

So, how would you explain the meaning of the poster? Have fun with an explanation!

Thanks!

All rise and repeat after me. I Pledge Alligiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible with Liberty and Justice for all. How's that?

I agree with your thoughts. I likened it to a judge coming into the courtroom.

When do people "All Rise"?

When the judge walks into the room.

When the President walks into congress.

When a Football get's his number retired at the hall of fame.

That's it.

I agree, it's respect. A judge entering the courtroom, National Anthem, etc, but I too like schwiiiiing!
