I've searched the forums with no luck, and I distinctly remember a thread discussing what Chicago did with those (mostly) black banners that were hanging on the light poles during the championship parade. Seems like the auctioned them off, but I can't remember.

Also does anyone have a good photo of one of these? Thanks!

EDIT: I'm basically looking for a good photo of one, what they went for, and possibly that past thread in general. :)

I have a minature one. It's about 20' x 45'. It looks identical the ones that were hung off the poles but in a much more manageable size. I can take a picture and send it to you when I get home.

More manageable? I hope you mean 20" x 45" :wink:

Yes, if you could please do that, I'd appreciate it.

Yes, that what I meant. Beer Can Chicken gets confused easily. :D:

This is the best one that I could find in my pics. Sorry for the glare at the top.

They did auction them off, but not all of them. There was an article in the Sun-Times a few months ago saying that more were auctioned off in Fall of 06 where they went for a few hundred dollars.
