This gigantic LEGO American flag will give you all the patriotic feels



Because it's July 4 weekend, we're giving you this really, really big LEGO American flag. You're welcome.


Measuring 9½ feet tall and 14 feet wide, the ginormous, 546-pound red, white and blue monster — the largest LEGO American flag ever, by the way — was built Wednesday by more than 15,000 visitors at Washington's National Museum of American History using 100,000-plus LEGO bricks. (The build was created to celebrate the grand opening of the museum's brand-spankin'-new Innovation Wing but also because, hey, YAY AMERICA.)
