Default BE HONEST: Who else thought that was a Texas flag plastered all that stuff in Chile?

I'll admit, I'm a dumbass. I've been watching this stuff from Chile on and off today and also in the past few weeks. I was wondering, why are there Texas flags all over the place? At first I thought maye because there were some Texas NASA folks or something, but then the flags became more prominent and I couldn't understand it...then basically my wife told me I'm a dumbass and explained it to me.

So, who else?

it's the Chillien(SP?) Flag....it's pretty close to a Texas flag and I can see how people would think it was a Texas flag at a glance/partial view

At First Glance I was like WTF but then I really looked at it and realized that it wasn't the flag everyone at work pretty much did the same.
