Need a pic or a link. Sounds delish.
It was on the Seattle news channel, and they've been repeating the story about every hour, I am sorry that I don't know exactly how to link it, oh and they did say it wouldn't be an inexpensive endeavor, but that it was likely going to get done.

Clearly photoshopped. And a good job of it. Would be hilarious seeing people climb up there decked out in Hawks gear :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
Lies! It's really real. Look, my ex-wife's new boyfriend's step sister's mailman has a buddy who lives in the Yay area. The mailman's neighbor owns a dronetography company and he was doing a flyby and took some pictures. This is the latest one he captured

Given that the Golden Gate towers are 500' from the roadway and that flag is about half the height of the tower (250'), that would imply that that flag is 250' x 500' and 125,000 square feet.

By comparison, the flag outside Tacoma Screw Products (the biggest in the area I know of) is 40' x 80' and 3200 sq ft, weighing about 150 pounds.

So the AI flag here would weigh about 6 tons, and given that it is pinned at the corners and pulled taut, be of some alien material with unheard of tensile strength.

But I'm not worried about all that, I'm just glad for the chance to get it out of my garage.
