I’ve been trying to figure out why the sego lilly flag bothered me, and I think I may have discovered the source:

I can see why PBH likes it. He has always been in favor of turning the rest of Utah to be just like Salt Lake City.

Why does SLC have a flag? Is that a thing for capital cities?
If SLCs is a marijuana bud then Cedar City's is either a car wash or a prescription opioid pill, given the amount of Rx that flowed through this region at the peak of the crisis.

I like some of the top right and the top left. I don't hate our flag, but it's not something I want to wear around on a hat or shirt with pride. It looks like a military patch. I am often jealous of the Colorado flag. That is a cool flag and something you want to wear around with pride IF you like that state. None of these new designs are "doing it for me" but I love the idea of a cool new design. We should put an elk on there, or a buffalo since we have the last natural herd here in the state (so I've been told).

What a complete and utter waste of taxpayer dollars!! LEAVE THE FLAG AS IT WAS!! There is absolutely NO NEED OR REASON to change it, except for some design company to make tens of thousands of dollars.

Maybe we can put a giant middle finger on our flag?

After reading that article, I'm more convinced than ever that the sego lily design is fitting for the flag. However, a hat should be put above the lily.

I see what you did there!!!

Welcome aboard.

Well, it looks like the adzhat, uh sorry, wait, Sego lily design didn't make the top 5.

Here are the top 5 finalists.

Can't say any of those 5 do it for me. (maybe the beehive surrounded by stars if you twisted my arm.) I would favor leaving it as it is, but what do I know. I was born in Idaho.

This is probably my preference for what made the final list, in order of preference.

The surveys showed that even southern Utah folk didn't love the orange representing the "red rock" country, and preferred red. I think the design of my #2 is more attractive than the one with the red as #3 that looks like Captain Marvel.

 

[Vanilla]

I don’t know how this one made it as it want one of the 5 finalists, but I like it better than the final 5, so we’ll call it a win.

 

[Catherder]

Meh. Of the "mountain design" ones, I think I would take your previous #3 over that one, but they kind of are all the same. At least they had the good sense not to use the Delta Airline one.

Wonder how spirited the legislative debate will be for final approval?

Or the anus!

One of the things I mentioned early on is I like how there are some state flags that you can brand, meaning, apparel that looks cool with the flag on it. I think you could brand this. I approve.

I guess it's not the first time. Flag of the Utah Territory, Flag of Utah (1903–1904), Flag of Utah (1904–1911), Flag of Utah (1911–1913), Flag of Utah (1913–1922) , Flag of Utah (1922–2011) , Flag of Utah (2011–present) Left to right.

I’d get that license plate!

 

[Catherder]

Not terrible, but I'll stick with Delicate Arch.

 

[KineKilla]

Greatest snow on earth is the best plate. Guess it's Ski Utah now. Simple and clean.

The old Ski Utah plate of my youth really is unbeatable. The newer version with “Life Elevated” and a skier isn’t as good, which is what I have. The trout specialty plate is a great one too.

The Delicate Arch plate was never my jam.

I think all the Utah plates are pretty lame. It's like whoever designs the Utah plates just finished Graphic Design 101. Our neighboring states put Utah to shame.
