This flag was used back in 1918 to celebrate Illinois' 100th anniversary of statehood. I personally wish it was straight up the state flag as opposed to what we have now.

Honestly the current one looks like they had set everything up for a nice picture and then just before they took the picture a bird came and messed everything up.

Yeah, the current flag looks like a middle school kid with m$ Paint won a participation prize.
