State Flags
 
I was thinking about this Sunday as I was board!

The State Flags that seem to stick in our minds?

Mine:

Texas, New Mexico. and Tenn!

Plain and simple may be the key.

Heh, my PA state flag has gone very far with me. I'm a fan.

It's hanging above my bed in my flat here in Glasgow. People always ask me if it's a football (soccer) flag because of the crest.
Pardon the smarmy look, was getting ready to go to a ceilidh.

Texas - Obviously. I like the fact we incorperated the Bonnie Blue design onto the flag.

Maryland's Flag - I don't know what it is about it but I like it.

South Carolina - I've come to really like their flag. However, when we played the University of South Carolina in a bowl game two years back I was a little shocked to see their state flag laid on the ground. :eek:

Yes, I'm biased.


I really like the flag of the state of California. It just doesn't look like any other flag in the union and it harkens back to a time when, for a very brief moment, we were our own Republic. And Cuffy (the bear) is just cool. :cool:

Maryland's flag is kind of busy; but, it is also distinct.

The same goes for Arizona, my brothers and sisters to the east.

Indiana, Alaska and South Carolina are also neat 'cause they're different.

For those who love trivia: the flag of Maryland is the only state flag which properly has a cross at the top, not a ball.

The quadrants symbolize the paternal & maternal sides of George Calvert, First Lord of Baltimore, and the original colonist of Maryland.

Yes ours is very cool. The only flag shaped like a burgee in the U.S. (and I think the world but I might be wrong).
