Vancouver 2010: Flag Walks? Really?

OMG, that dog, he's just so excited to pee all over Switzerland's flag! Super Fun! And just when I thought Yaletown couldn't get any more awful, they go and participate in some sort of hideous flag walk. According to the brochure:

"Picture yourself in a business district that is celebrating all things international; a restaurant is featuring Italian cuisine, the spa is featuring French beauty products, and all things German are on sale for one day at your store. Above-ground level offices will have flags and pennants on display and you will see employees everywhere wearing flag pins. Some shops will adopt a specific country, while others will want to support the home team and focus on cheering Canada through the whole celebration season. All participation will be unique and suited to the individual participating business. The Flag Walk project will create energy that screams Olympic fun for everyone – not just for two weeks but for the one hundred days leading up to the Games."

When I'm at Earl's having hot wings near some exotic flag of a country I've never heard of while I wear my Ed Hardy tee, I'll be sure to think of all the unique "Olympic Fun" I'm having. Yay! And don't worry about walking on the flags, they aren't actually Flags! Phew! At least that is what the official FlagWalk website tells me. Flags, you see aren't actually round! Hooray! Let's go walk on them! Check out the demo:
