I wonder if CGP Grey will be disappointed or not. https://youtu.be/lFwwo0W5Ugg

He was praising the reverse chevron which they kept. My argument is that a kid should be able to draw it with crayons to enough detail that grown-ups recognize it. And it does that nicely.

I know I am, but at least the inverted side is kept, and the two blues could be thought of as keeping with the Sioux word for sky-tinted water that Minnesota got its name from.

It could have gone worse for him, but it’s definitely not what he wanted!

I live here, personally the simplicity is growing on me, at least they didn't change the colors to be bright and obnoxious like some of the other variations of it proprosed.

The simple two blues and white feels cozy, the tricolor feels like it'd be an amazing country flag, but for a state I feel the simplicity is a benefit.

A bit. They picked his favorite design but he didn't like the variations as much. Im disappointed they dropped the extra color.
