But Then....The City Council told him that he could only have a 30-foot pole but he refused to take it down. They told him they would fine him $1250 a day until he took it down. He said fine, that's chump change. When the fine reached $120,000 he went to the city council and made a deal. He would lower the flag to a 50-foot pole if he could donate the $120,000 to the Veterans Affairs, to which they agreed. He took an 80-foot pole down and a landscape company came in and built a 30-foot hill where the pole was and put up a 50-foot pole. Lol... That's why we love the guy. I'm just as big of a smart ass. Ppl like us... you either love us or hate us!!
