Well, Maybe he did, we don't know....... but President Bush definitely did !

In 1990 Roseanne Barr performed the "Star Spangled Banner" before a baseball
game between the Padres and Reds. Roseanne's rendition was considered
screechy and featured somewhat obscene baseball gestures. The performance
caused a degree of controversy, even gaining recognition from then President
George H.W. Bush, who called the performance "disgusting" and "a disgrace".
