Adams College Banners and Pennants from Revenge of the Nerds 1984

Adams College is the fictional University of Revenge of the Nerds.  The school livery is red and white. 

Here a student is wearing the school logo with school mascot which is Adam's Atoms.

Reversing the colours of the school is a common practice.  In this case the pennant is white and the print is red for Adam's Atoms. 


Here an athletic banner that plays on the theme of smashing atoms at Adam's.   In this case the 'O' of ATOM has been replaced with a standard model drawing of an atom.

Other Flags in the original Lambda Lambda Lambda Fraternity House - Revenge of the Nerds 1984

All kinds of flags appear in the Revenge of the Nerds film from 1984.  Flags are used as house decorations to set a festive atmosphere as social signal joke banners. The upper flag is the married signal joke flag.  It has a red background with a white ball and chain.  Not a slavery flag, rather it indicates that the persons here can not go out and party because she or he is married.

The other flag is the Beer Mug flag.  It has sky blue background and filled mug of freshly poured draft beer.  It indicates that a party is going on and persons are enjoying a festival for persons over 21 years of age, at least in the United States.  You can
also see the school pennant for Adams College in this shot.  It is a red pennant with the schools coat of arms. Another alcoholic flag can be seen on a bulletin board - the glass of wine flag.  It has white background with a red wine glass upon it.  It is visible when the pigs are let loose at the Lambda Lambda Lambda probationary party.

Fraternal Livery of the Lambda Lambda Lambda - Revenge of the Nerds 1984


Long before the television show about a Big Bang Theory, snapper chat, digital avatar uploading, or the mass hypnosis of hand held silicon laden communication devices, there was in 1984 the revenge..... Revenge of the Nerds.  More than just a movie about bullying and misfits, it was destined to become Art Inspired Reality with the formation of an actual fraternity modeled after this film - Lambda Lambda Lambda.   The first real fraternity of Lambda Lambda Lambda was established in Connecticut on January 15, 2006 at the University of Connecticut.

The livery colours of Lambda Lambda Lambda are black and white, which are seen as the black and white streamers. At a party when the Tri-Lambs are having their probationary fraternity party, the black and white livery can easily be seen. 

Coincidentally the Machine Nation of ZERO ONE uses the same colours of black and white, as seen the Matrix animated prequels.

Here the racing pennant of the Tri-Lambs can be seen with their supporting sister sorority - Omega Mu.  The colours of the pennant are black with white writing, while Omega Mu's pennant has a pink background and white writing.








USA Flag in Revenge of the Nerds - 1984


In 1984 the world of academia was rebooted in favor of the technologically skilled. And greatest of all "N" word movies hit Hollywood.  Revenge of the Nerds 1984 is the classic original "N" word movie.  The flag of the USA appears in this film several times.  Its most centered scene takes place when we see it hanging in the makeshift gymnasium-dorm above the robot and next to the epic underdog heroes of the film Lewis & Gilbert, played by  Robert Carraoine and Anthony Edwards respectively seen in the photo above


The US flag also appears during the Greek Council room.  It can be seen hanging on the port side of the Greek Hall.


The US flag also appears as an arm patch on some of the college competitors before the beginning of the Beer-Tricycle Race.  It can be best seen on the blue and red dressed members of the race.

All through the 1980s techie movies were unleashed into the public sphere before the main launch of the internet in the 1990s.  Other such techno-computer oriented movies included Real Genius, Weird Science, and War Games.

Chris Rock's South Carolina Heritage Flag Proposals




The winning design was presented to then South Carolina Governor Jim Hodges.  The flag featured the stars replaced with stars from the WB network.

 In a satire to replace the Confederate Flag, Chris Rock went to the streets of South Carolina to ask people what they think about different flags to replace the Confederate Battle Flag.

This is the Silly Saltine on the blue background flag.
 This is the Malcolm X flag.
 This the odd South Carolina OKKK flag.

Another absurd flag is the OJ Simpson with female Caucasian flag.
