A very common prank among school-age children is to pilfer underpants from someone and hang it from a flagpole like a flag. The underwear will often be Goofy Print Underwear. Instances where the wearer is not removed from the underpants first count as a Wedgie. Compare Comedic Underwear Exposure, which is something similar on a person. Not to be confused with Flag Bikini, which is swimwear or underwear in the color and pattern of a national flag. See also Panty Thief, who steals and keeps underwear for (usually) perverted reasons. |

In an episode of Robotboy, Donnie Turnbull (Tommy's obnoxious big brother) does more than run kids' underwear up flagpoles. He does so with the kids still wearing them. | |

The Teen Titans Go! episode "Snot and Tears" begins with the Titans, and their new friend Bumblebee, paying giggling respects to Robin's underpants, waving majestically on a flagpole. The laughter abruptly turns to shrieks of horror when Robin emerges from his cabin without any. | |

While it's not shown, Duncan and Gwen from Total Drama did this in one episode after star gazing together and getting a little too close for friends. Gwen states that they did this after Geoff tries to imply they kissed. In a rare version of this trope, they ran everyone's underpants up the flagpole, rather then just one person. | |

The Berenstain Bears: The Big Chapter Book At Camp Crush has someone pulling a lot of pranks at Camp Grizzmeyer, the last of which is a variant on this — instead of underwear flying at the top of the flagpole, it's Mr. Grizzmeyer's striped pajama bottoms. It turns out to have been done by the Too-Tall Gang, who were bored at home since most of their classmates were off at the camp for the summer. | |

Phineas and Ferb: In "Get That Bigfoot Outta My Face", Buford says his plans for camp are to "find a nerd, take his underpants, and run them up the flagpole". When Phineas tells him he doesn't think they have a flagpole, he settles for just taking the underpants. In "The Ballad of Badbeard", Buford finally gets to run a pair of underpants up the flagpole after stealing them from Baljeet. |

Used by the Arabian army in Follow That Camel to mock the French Foreign Legion's morning march, when a pair of bloomers are attached to the flagpole; the Arabian soldiers and their leader don't even attempt to hide themselves, and conspicuously shriek with laughter on the nearby balcony as the Legion's staff threaten to punish their soldiers. | |

Red vs. Blue: Part of the Blues and Reds' backstory involves the Blues misplacing their flag and losing the map showing where it was hidden, with Loco making a replacement flag out of a wooden pole and a pair of underpants. Carolina is not pleased by the situation when she arrives at Desert Gulch for a sparring match with Tex. Said underwear flag accidentally becomes Biff's murder weapon after Carolina deflects it towards him and impales him to the wall when Tex throws it at her, with Tex violently pulling it out of his abdomen and causing Biff to bleed out and die. | |

In the series Salute Your Shorts, this trope happens in both the opening title sequences and the first episode's teaser, where Budnick and Donkeylips take the camp flag down and put up a pair of boxer shorts in its place. Three pairs that are different from those in Season 1 are used in Season 2's title sequence. Despite the different shots used each time, the Season 1 title sequence boxers match Michael's, so it's implied to be his in both instances. The instance in the aforementioned teaser prompts a Title Drop from Sponge in-episode. | |
