The only time that you would see them waving their flag high and with pride - was when the Italian National Soccer Team was on the field.
In the United States the flag is a strong symbol and one that the population holds onto very strongly. In fact, the States wave their flag for lots of reason - and sports may or may not be on the list.
For this reason, I always found it amusing that the national spirit of a country with SO much spirit was most evident during the World Cup and the Confederation Cup - throw in a couple of races with the Ferrari and the list is just about complete.
