Flags on gameday.


i say that's proper.

also, don't accidentally roll down your window while driving down the interstate. did that leaving memphis, hopefully didn't break any windshields.

My flag sporting has adapted as I've gotten older.

early high school- Put em up starting early summer (around june) and leave them til after football season

late high school- put em up at the beginning of august, leave up til after season

early college- Fri-Sun during football season

late college- Friday and saturday during season

early post college- only on gameday

current (5 years post college)- Practically never.

I got a license plate and sticker on my back windsheild that stays on all year round.

I think flags, magnets and pom poms are obnoxious except and only on game days.

Keep it classy SEC.

I keep a small magnet on my car. Makes it easy for me to find in parking lots.

I tried to do the flag thing once. At 75 MPH, it just made too much noise for me.

Game day or on your way to the game if that is earlier.

I agree with #3 about not overdoing it. The first time I ever saw a car flag was when Ole Miss fans brought them to town in the late seventies or early eighties. They were really cool back then, but now I hate seeing cars driving around town with them always on. Get a life!

What's the procedure after; A Bowl Win; A Rival Win; SEC Championship; National Championship? I'd say a victory lap of a week straight though.

Commute to/from game, and I'd allow 4 flags instead of just 2 so the back mirrors the front

No more though

Gameday. Only time I do it more than that is leading up to our game against Louisville and that's only because I live in Louisville. Any longer and one of the resident linebeards will try to rip it off your car.

Only Bama and Auburn fans do this on car flags.

I drove through Muscle Sholes last year on a Monday and thought Bama had to be playing a Freshman game somewhere.

Just to and from a commute to an actual game? I'm on board with that and it seems to be the opinion of the majority.

Clean it up Bama, you got literally nobody on the schedule this week.

Regulate

The only circumstance in which they should be allowed is if people can stand on the side of the road with their shotguns and shoot at the flags, like traps, as they go bye.

On game day and when driving to road games.

For the LSU road trip this year the flags will be locked in the trunk and Texas plates removed from the car! I speak from experience.

Game day for all items.

Friday/Sunday if you have to travel.

All week if you just beat your #1 rival.
