It's the first result when searching "percentage of Americans that know the lyrics to the national anthem".

Of Americans that claim to know the lyrics only 39% know what follows the line "whose broad stripes and bright stars".

HOW DARE THESE FOOTBALL PLAYERS DISRESPECT THIS SONG THAT WE DONT KNOW THE WORDS TO!!!

Also "broad"? Fucking patriarchy.
