Well the US flag has 5 groups of 6
and 4 groups of 5 (stars that is)
But you haven’t mentioned any red yet.
Is it two flags, with the yellow for flames
of some sort?

Dave-
We have a winner!
It’s a US flag designed to set a Guinness World Records recognized mark for the
largest national flag made of LEGO in general and largest US flag made of LEGO
in particular.
Our flag will be over 6 feet high, 12 feet long, and 8 studs thick with a
maximum wave amplitude (it’s got a flutter) of about 40 studs. We made the union
of solid blue and 1-stud thick SNOT stars are attached with click hinges on both
sides. This meant we needed 2 x 50 = 100 stars, so that’s 5 rows of 6 and 4 rows
of 5 on each side. In addition to the red, white, and blue stars, stripes, and
union, we have a gray flagpole with a yellow ball on top. The other colors were
just for internal interconnect to make a more balanced collection of parts after
dissassembly (and because we could not get any more white).
We will assemble the flag during the second weekend of the July fair with the
aid of the general public.
Thanks to everyone who made a guess.
