An American flag the size of a football field is going to be displayed on the Hoover Dam, along with red and blue lighting, as part of the America 250 celebrations this summer.

The Hoover Dam is a symbol of American ingenuity and our ability to get big jobs done, so it’s completely appropriate to include it in the celebration.

Also, Democrats will hate it, so that’s an added bonus.

Hoover Dam Adorned With Football Field-Sized American Flag Ahead of 250th Celebration

The Hoover Dam was adorned by a massive football field-sized American flag over Memorial Day weekend ahead of the United States’ 250th anniversary celebration.

Nevada and Arizona leaders came together to adorn the iconic landmark with a 300-foot-tall, 150-foot-wide flag during the road to America250 ceremony, making it one of the most ambitious patriotic displays ever attempted. The dam was also lit up with red, white, and blue lights at night as part of the dramatic installation.

“As we approach America’s 250th anniversary, Nevada is proud to help tell the story of innovation, exploration, and progress that shapes our nation, from Hoover Dam to our growing technology and infrastructure sectors to the world-class tourism industry,” Republican Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo said in a statement. “Nevada has always played an important role in American history.”

“For generations, Hoover Dam has stood as one of the greatest engineering achievements in American history. It represents determination, ingenuity, hard work, and the willingness of Americans to take on challenges that once seemed impossible.”…

The flag itself was a huge undertaking, weighing roughly 2,000 pounds and over 500 pounds of sewing material added to reinforce the display. Hundreds of rings were welded onto the flag, requiring five days of preparatory sewing before installation.

If you have ever considered visiting the Hoover Dam, now would be a good time.

The 250th is going to be amazing!
