Anyone install/fly a flag or banner...what works?

I'd like to fly a guidon off something like a whip antenna..
Maybe a flag once in awhile.

If you have done so, there are bound to be downsides to this idea...
What did you find out?

I use to do this on my old Dodge Ram for football games in college. I just bought a length of pipe, drilled some holes to mount a 3x5 flag, wrapped the pipe in black tape, and stuck it in the stake hole on the bed. Could drive down the highway without issues... Actually had 2 of them (Texas flag & Texas Tech flag) mounted on poles.

I drilled a hole in the receiver hitch, welded a nut to it, attached a flag to a long piece of all thread and screwed the all thread into the nut. Works great.

Only in my avatar at 14,000 feet I wired a broomstick handle to the mirror
