Whoops - good catch, Jason! It measures approximately 33"-34", not 24 as I had stated.

Finally got around to listing this one on eBay:

I may buy this and burn it in the early hours of Dec 12 as a offering to the football gods for Army to break this losing streak. It's not like Navy is really even that good this year

I should have said that this pennant will not be sold to any ARMY fans!

If I get $250 for something, I say "do with it whatever you want!"
