"U-S-A!" is a chant of the United States of America's initials, popular in expressing American pride. It is often used at political demonstrations, sports events, holiday celebrations such as Independence Day, and other community events both in the United States and overseas among American diaspora and tourists. First documented in 1918 at a Bethlehem Steel plant in Lebanon, Pennsylvania, the chant is perceived as both a powerful display of American unity and love of the country.
