Are you ready for “Flagstock 2024?”
According to a Fox News report, the GoFundMe for the UNC fraternity brothers who protected the American Flag during pro-Palestinian campus riots cleared $500,000 — and an epic party is incoming.
From Fox News:
On Monday, an update to the GoFundMe page announced the party, “Flagstock 2024” is set to take place on Labor Day, Sept. 2, 2024. Organizers John Noonan and Susan Ralston said they established the organization “Pints for Patriots,” which includes a board of directors and a small team of volunteers to ensure every cent of donor dollars “goes to throwing these fine young Americans the epic rager they earned.”
“We owe all freedom-loving Americans an update on our progress,” the announcement said. “Flagstock 2024 planning is in full swing! We have established Pints for Patriots to plan and execute the event, liaise with UNC Chapel Hill officials, handle security, and handle logistics.”
“Nothing unifies America like an epic party,” Noonan told Fox News Digital. The location will be announced closer to the event, but the party will be free of charge for all invited guests.
“These great young guys defended our flag and created a unifying national cultural moment,” the update said. “Everyone in America wanted to thank these fine young patriots. On Labor Day, we will get to do just that. Pints for Patriots is grateful to all donors who made the party possible.”
Back on April 30th, one of the fraternity brothers shared pictures, video, and a message about protecting Old Glory during the protests.
(Thread) Today was a sad yet empowering day at Chapel Hill. When I walked to class, I saw the Palestinian flag raised on our quad flag pole, and was immediately upset at the act that these “protestors” had made.
