The Best State Flag

This may have been a topic that's been beaten like the dead horse, and maybe it hasn't.
Which USA state has the best flag? I mean, I live in Illinois and as far as I'm concerned the Illinois State Flag is pathetic. It's the state seal on a white flag. This City of Chicago has a better flag (and since that's where most of the power in the state is I suppose that's appropriate - but don't let me get off on that rant).
I personally vote in no particular order...
Alaska
Indiana
Tennessee
South Carolina
and Rhode Island

I suppose this really doesn't apply to our Canadian Ford Fans, or even our Austrailian Friends. You folks could nominate a province flag if you want.
You might want to put a link so we can see what you're describing.
oh, and here's a link http://www.50states.com/flag/ for state flags.

To the right of the tree in the middle of the Vermont state flag there's a mointain called Camel's Hump. You know it's true cause otherwise there would be fewer camels.

I'm all for the Texas flag. Granted, I'm from Texas and highly prejudiced against other states (ha!). But to me, its great. It looks good, its got great colors (hard to beat red white and blue) and even a pre-schooler can draw it.

Later today, I will give my neighbors 2 year old a red marker and a sheet of paper and show her the Alabama state flag and time how long it will take her to draw it.

That page is tedious work clicking every one.
here is a better page for viewing.

Personally I like Georgia's & Delaware.

IMO, The Maryland Flag needs reworking as it looks like a car with paint on the tires drove over it


Canadian Province : I like British Columbia's Flag.

The Confederate flag!
j/k
I had already decided that Texas was the best. but I clicked on every one of those just to be fair. and well . . The Texas flag is still the best.
Mississippi, and AZ have pretty groovy flags. Hawaii's looks British, and Masechusetts looks Mideval.

EDIT: The flags aren't the same between Dennis' site and ChurchTurtle's ???
Georgia's is pretty groovy on Dennis'

Mil1ion - thanks for the links. That helps a lot.

And I can't disagree with Texas being a good one. I mean it's a classic.

For all you Canadians out there..... Texas' flag is the best state flag. Which other state flag can be hoisted to the same height as the American flag????

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yes they are.

The difference is one is up close to see detail & the other is further away like you are looking at it from a couple hundred feet from it.

I'm kinda partial to the Arkansas flag. Although I like the Georgia and Mississippi flags as well.
