Absolutely.

I rescued one of those car flags once from the middle of a busy highway. Cars kept going over it, I waited for a break in traffic and ran out to get her. The plastic pole was beat up but the flag, thick nylon, cleaned up nice. I still need to sew a new topper - it's been forever - and then she will be a window flag.

Well done OP well done.

I found a flag in a trash bin at my job, I work in a warehouse, I immediately pulled it out of the trash, folded her up and took her home, she now sits at the bar in my basement.

Good work. It really grinds my gears whenever I see someone flying a ripped up and tattered to pieces flag. It doesnt look cool or badass or anything like that, it just looks shitty and disrespectful.

Did you find the old girl a new home? I hear old flags are the hardest to adopt out since everyone always wants new flags:/

I didnt think I was going to read this far into the comments because I saw the pressure washer and ... so any. Fuck Yeah! Thats the answer. Ret USA myself DV. We know the respectful answer and we know the real answer. Pick her up. Shake her off and continue the fight! Shes harder and tougher than us! Sorry just smoked a bowl and got turnt up.

I found my flag in much the same way. Just thrown in the gutter. She hangs freely on my wall now! Canโ€™t believe anyone would do this to our great flag. People have died for it! Treat it that way!

Do you have a sewing machine? Stitch up those ends for durability and you have a battle-ready flag... for Minecraft
