The Green Texas Flag

[UNTflyer]

I own two! I brought one to the NCAA Selection Show in the AC, and had it draped around me every second of the game in N'Orleans.

We have the Stars & Stripes, the Union Jack, the Star and Bars. We should name the green flag and use it more.

I developed the green Texas flag in the late 80's and I agree with Firefightin Rick that it should be called the North Texas Battle flag.

The North Texas Battle Flag...

I like that, and that's what I've known it to be called by. If not that, then something grand like, "The Flag of North Texas" or "The Emerald of Texas" would be pretty nice, too.

[UNTflyer]

I like it, but how about:

The Green Gonfalon

Boomer Banner

Mean Green Jack

Name the flag. Do it for the girls.

[FirefightnRick]

It's been commonly referred to as the NT Battle Flag for many years and is one of our oldest design/logo's still in use today.

Star and Bars.. as in the first national flag of the Confederacy?

What was this discussion about????

[Mad Hatter]

I was just thinking the other day that someone should take the "Come and Take it" flag, write Boomer on the cannon and make the whole thing green and white. That way it adds onto the Boomer tradition. Edited July 14, 2007 by Mad Hatter

Flyer, Do you have any more flag photos?

[JayDub]

The "Come and Take It" should be part of the Cannon Crew setup....

It is, I think out shirts are pretty sweet.

I remember seeing the shirts...but I'd like to see the Green Texas Flag and the Come And Take It Flag along with Boomer.

The headlights are on.

The Mean Green or North Texas Battle Flag. I've never heard it refered to by any other name.

How hard would it be (money) to have a giant Battle Flag made and displayed before kickoff or during halftime. Similar to the way Texas uses the giant Texas flag at Memorial Stadium ?

That might be a good project for GOMEANGREEN.COM

Good show, mike. We got those, in what...2004? 2005?

[Mad Hatter]

Ok - So instead of Talons Cannon Crew, could we put Boomer on the cannon, and make it into a flag? Maybe put an eagle with outstretched wings instead of the star? or with the star?

[UNTflyer]

Can we focus this thread on the topic at hand?

Much better.

Flyer,

You and I seem to be the only one who understand what this thread is truly about.

They are except for the toothpaste shade of green they are made of. Plenty of time to get that corrected though.

Depends on what you consider "giant". The current one that Talons run on the sidelines now is a 12 x 8 and cost me around $150 back around 2001 or so? Decide on a size and I can call my supplier and find out.
