Flagstock: UNC Chapel Hill fraternity brothers who defended American flag finally getting their ‘rager’
The fraternity brothers at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill who defended the American flag during spring semester campus unrest are getting their party.
A GoFundMe page created by a third party raised more than $500,000 for the college men who prevented the American flag on Chapel Hill’s quad from touching the ground when anti-Israel agitators tried to replace it with the Palestinian flag, promising a “rager.” Country singer John Rich then offered to host a concert on Monday in their honor.
That concert turned into a large show featuring multiple artists and bands including Big & Rich, Aaron Lewis, John Ondrasik and Lee Greenwood. More than 2,000 invited Chapel Hill attendees are expected to show on Monday.
“I was so impressed that, first of all, someone had taught them . . . that you never let the American flag touch the ground, under any circumstances,” Rich told Fox News Digital when asked about his impression of the photo in May. “Somebody raised these guys correctly. They understand what’s going on.”
The flag incident happened in May, when anti-Israel agitators set up an encampment on the quad, successfully replacing Old Glory once before UNC Chancellor Lee Roberts responded with law enforcement officers to return the American flag to its place. When activists, some of whom were not affiliated with the nation’s first public university, attempted to take it down a second time, a group of male students — including members of multiple fraternities — stepped in.
A student photographer captured the moment that went viral on social media and made national headlines as similar protests occurred on college campuses throughout the country.
