Yes, probably that's what it is... good ole Chinese QualityControl and abysmal US oversight. Though I used to live in Puerto Rico and they add the 51 star all the time; mainly for unofficial pro-statehood party activities. The RNC is kinda that type of event (at least in heir mind), so I would not be surprise they had 51 stars flags there in the crowd. But at least I'm pretty sure they would use the right number of rows for stars; 9 instead of 6 .

That star pattern in the pictured flag is wrong.... From the U.S. Flag Codes... "The flag of the United States of America consists of 13 equal horizontal stripes of red (top and bottom) alternating with white, with a blue rectangle in the canton bearing 50 small, white, five-pointed stars arranged in nine offset horizontal rows of six stars (top and bottom) alternating with rows of five stars." The U.S. flag I proudly fly on the front of my house is correct.

Yeah, I got the star pattern and count too. Nice documentation, Brother Rick.
Is that Elvis on the left?

2 Stripes and one big red leaf FTW. Yours is way too complicated. When the flag makers of our country got together, they started to think really hard and then suddenly an oak leaf flew in the window and landed on Buddie's red desk blotter. BAM! Time for a well earned beer! .
