It's another disaster brought to you by the same type of idiots who designed continual intersections, the new airport, and many other things in Utah (like spending a billion on the world's longest gondola to fix traffic 10 days out of the year). Way over thought, unnecessarily complicated, and something people get stuck with.

The blue is sky, the white is mountains, the red is the Redrock and canyons — things Utah is famoas for the beehive, no idea why, but Utah is known as "the beehive state" and uses beehives on several different logos (UHP, state highways, etc.)

I hated the old flag. It was boring and uninteresting. This new flag does look like a 3rd grader designed it in an elementary school art competition. So many cool thinks in this state and we still get a crappy flag. I would have been happy with a flag with the two elements of a light blue sky and red rock colored earth. Oh well. What we gonna do? We cant even get rid of god damned day light savings time...

I preferred something like this business emblems back ground art without the writing of course...

I suppose I'm in the minority here:

I like the new one.

The old one looks like someone flipped through The Big Book of Flag Heraldry and picked a bunch of patriotic stuff to put in the middle.

The old flag's a bit boring but is quite functional, whereas the new one is very logo-ey as noted. If they want to modernize, why not keep the center ring from the old one except modernize the beehive (to something similar to the new version) and perhaps the eagle, and drop the updated circle into the red, white, and blue zags. That way they've updated the flag but preserved the interesting part of the past.

One other suggestion if it has to be updated: The old flags fly until they wear out and need to be replaced, and state workers should use up all old stocks of letterhead, etc., prior to using any with the new version. Minimize the ridiculous cost of the changeover to the taxpayer.

Yeah, get rid of the kick-ass eagle and replace it with a beehive. It looks like something designed by Girl Scouts.

In a way, it’s very authoritarian looking.
Bogus waste of money.

Except, if the ulterior political motive is to open and amend the states constitution.

Then other projects will surface and the populace screwed.

NYS tries this occasionally.
