Fan yells at Brian McKnight’s son to take off hat before performing National Anthem

R&B singer Brian McKnight and his sons sang the National Anthem before Sunday's Sprint Cup Series race at Phoenix International Raceway, and his son Niko was, uh, not-so-kindly told to take his hat off before the anthem started.

The request to "take that (stuff) off your head" was audible on the race broadcast, but it's really only understood if you are paying close attention for the request. We certainly didn't notice it as it happened live. (Note: the video above is uncensored and contains adult language.)

And yes, Niko McKnight did oblige, and removed his hat and acknowledged the area the request came from.
