Pocatello, Idaho
This is how Pocatello displays its pride. Now, normally, a logo doesn’t make the best flag. But I could see what they were thinking with this one! Mayor: “Our flag needs a slogan on it.” Town Councilman: “I won’t vote for it unless it has purple mountains majesty.” Nosy shopkeeper: “Not to barge in, but one font isn’t really enough. Let’s try two - or even three in the small print. Oh, every town flag needs fine print.” Librarian: “Oh, my, this is hopeless. How can we accomodate all this into a well-designed flag that represents Pocatello?” Cemetery Sextant: ”Excuse me…” Mayor: “Quiet down everyone, the cemetery sextant has something to say.” Cemetery Sextant: “Excuse me, but why do we have to include all that stuff on our flag? Shouldn’t we just try to do something simple and elegant?” Mayor: ”Kill Him!!!” And that’s how this happened. But watch out - this mo’ fo’ is trademarked.
