Who is your favorite flagman?

On a sidenote, saw a flagman almost ran over by Kevin Weaver at Kankakee. Flagman was so upest with Kevin Weaver for refusing to line up right after a 1st lap caution during heat race. Flagman literally climbed down flag stand on to the front stretch giving Weaver the black flag. Weaver flew down the straightaway and swerved at him. Flagman jumped back and fell on his b#tt. Needless to say Weaver was tossed from the fairgrounds. Weaver hauler was leaving fiargrounds before the heats were over.....

Thanks for that flashback IZZOJR16, I was there that night, it was quite funny. I think the flagman was a Whittington if memory hasn't left me, and he also under a red one night, climbed off his perch, went to turn 4 and preceded to get into it with Scott James, sounded like he tried getting him thrown off the track ,but didn't get it done. I was never a fan of Whittington's.

Can't remember his name but the flagman who used to run the AMA flat track motorcycles at Ascot (boy is that place missed) was something to watch. Did backflips down the front straightaway as he waved the bikes off. Then stood on the track while a bunch of crazy guys on Harleys came at him at over 100 mph all sideways. That was in the late '60s.

Has to be Spanky. Takes no crap from anyone, and really gets into it and is one of the best in the business.

The same as my favorite referee; the one that does his job well and doesn't act like he is the show. Except for the little kid in the first row with his own flag set,...he's always the one to watch.
