This is so cool, and the new flag is a great choice. It hides a map of Minnesota within itself and can be hung vertically and still look good.

I still liked this one most because I'm a huge symmetry fanboy

But this one was a very close second for me and I'm really happy ~~the voters chose it~~ this was chosen (my bad) over the other two. Guess I should have moved to Minnesota.

It wasn't a vote, there was a flag redesign committee (otherwise we would have ended up with Flagy McFlagface). The star snowflake was my favorite as well, but I'm happy with what we went with and anything would have been better than the old seal on a bedsheet.

How does it hide a map?

[-] Rocketpoweredgorilla@lemmy.ca 17 points 10 months ago

The dark blue is roughly the shape of Minnesota.

[-] snowe@programming.dev 7 points 10 months ago

Looks like a K to me. Does Colorado get to claim the “rough shape” of it is in every flag lol?

[-] Rocketpoweredgorilla@lemmy.ca 4 points 10 months ago

I guess by Minnesota's standards they should be able to.

[-] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 25 points 10 months ago

yoooo did MN get new flag?

[-] mkwt@lemmy.world 25 points 10 months ago

CGP Grey is all over it. The design they picked is pretty sweet.

[-] FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 10 months ago

They did. And it's pretty nice.

[-] MindSkipperBro12@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

Much better than the old one.

[-] SirAtomic@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

We did get a new flag! People are losing their shit over it.

[-] Caboose12000@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

dang, now there are 2 US States with cool flags (MD flag forever!)

[-] Aaroncvx@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Hey Oregon has a two sided flag with a cute beaver on it.

[-] Dasnap@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

I'm sure CGP Grey is very pleased with the result.

[-] Hammersbald@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

I'm sensing an update video

[-] EightLeggedFreak@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

A members only first impression video is up.

i think he is also a bit disappointed they changed the tri-colour into a single colour but this one is still a solid A-tier

[-] HipsterTenZero@dormi.zone 11 points 10 months ago

i dont know what to say. im so disappointed minnesota didnt pick the Smoker flag

[-] ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

This is the more accurate Minnesota version.

[-] AlligatorBlizzard@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

That's actually the reason for the 2 in the title, someone else posted laser loon before me and while this is good, laser loon is better.

[-] Zoot@reddthat.com 1 points 10 months ago

Yes! I love that this is being accepted.

[-] Nerrad@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Damn nice flag. Well done, #Minnesota.

[-] DrPop@lemmy.ml 4 points 10 months ago

That's a sick ass flag. All my favorite colors in my birth state.

[-] RIP_Cheems@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I suddenly want the Minnesota flag.
