Flag for 3.14 - Pi Estimate Flag to the 100ths Place

Metric Number Flag for 420


Metric flags are logical numbered flags.  In the three digit case three stars indicates three digits of value. A green field with a yellow star represents 4, an orange field with a black star represents 2, and a white field with a black star represents Zero.  Thus this is the flag for the #420.

Flag for 5O or "Five-Oh"


The 5-O flag is composed of the colours blue and red.  Since blue is the 5th colour rainbow, the blue area in the beginning represents 5.  Since 'O' is the '15th letter in the alphabet it is composed of the first and fifth colours of the rainbow which are red and blue.  In our case the fly diagonal side represents the flag coloured letter 'O'.  Coincidentally US police units flash red and yellow lights on their vehicles when they are in pursuit. 

Flag for 86 - Getting 86'ed


You can declared something 86'ed or become 86'ed from an establishment - namely kicked out or banned from entry.  Now you can wave a flag to indicate the state of being Eighty-Sixed.  In the restaurant biz, instead of saying you're out of something people were 86'ed on onion rings or other type of food.
