"Standing for the National Anthem at the Old Town Waterville football game today and from behind the stands we hear, 'Hey, look! They aren't kneeling.' When I turn to see who said it, this is what I saw...three men roofing a house and respecting the flag," she wrote.

The post has been shared hundreds of times and sparked headlines nationally amid ongoing protests by NFL players.
