[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 193467, member: 2459"] All of the flags around here were at half mast. One especially got me. There is a car dealership in the town I work that has a HUGE flag. *From their website* The flag measures 50 ft. by 80 ft. The flag pole is 43 inches in diameter at the base. The pole itself weighs 35,600 lbs. The base contains 400,000 lbs. of reinforced concrete. They had THAT flag at half mast. I knew it wouldn't be close but when I went by it today, it seemed as though it would have to be near the ground if there wasn't any wind. The picture on their site shows them raising it originally (it's a continuously flying flag) and if I counted right, it took around 15 people to do it so it wouldn't touch the ground. [/QUOTE]
