Tailgate Flag Pole Recommendations

[ajspatio19]

I am looking to buy a portable telescoping flag pole for tailgating this year. Does anyone have recommendations on certain brands that seem to be high quality. I've never heard of the wind snapping one but I would hate to be the first person to have it happen and dent/scratch someone's car.

Also, if you have one how tall is it and do you wish it were taller or shorter? I'm bad at judging vertical distance so reading "23' flag pole" on a product description doesn't mean much to me.

The ones A-D Distributing sell are solid. They're downtown DSM by the Capitol. IDK if they carry the hitch mount style.

Average 2-story house is 20-25 feet at the peak for reference.

Does this one come with the base that goes under the tire? I can't find the diameter of the pole listed.
I think we have this one and the telescoping pole has not stayed up for years. If this base fits the above pole, that would be great.

I ordered and received that one today. It 100% does NOT have the base that goes under the tire. And,it does not fit our current base. So no new flag pole for the UNI game. Grrr.

Uh oh, I just ordered the exact same one expecting the tire base...maybe your order just got messed up. It shows the tire mount in the photo and says it is included in the project description as well

My pole came with a base. I can give you details if interested

To be clear, this is the one I ordered and asked about a tire base https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07M9KL7XS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_BZN0YGD9P0K45KQ4KGFF It did not show a base, thus my question.

This is one we've had for several years and the past few the pole doesn't stay up so we wanted a new one.

I am now thinking there was confusion with what I wrote and how I wrote it. See post #5
