Buzzkill: Mississippi rejects state flag featuring giant mosquito | Mississippi | The Guardian
Yes, that's the actual design. :lamo
Mississippi will not put a huge mosquito on its new state flag.
The state department of archives and history (MDAH) said on Tuesday that a design featuring the blood-sucking insect had slipped through the screening process and should not have been among the selections posted online on Monday.
"The mosquito flag advanced to Round Two due to a typo in a list of flag numbers submitted by one commissioner," the agency said in a statement Tuesday. "That commissioner has requested that the flag be removed from the Round Two gallery, and MDAH staff has complied."
