BTW, beautiful display.
We did something similar on the overpasses over I-95 down here in Florida.
We had no problem with the local cops but the FHP later forced us to take down our large signs with the same excuse about safety.
Of course, it was a windy day and one of our people did drop a sign onto the highway below.
That was dangerous and certainly did not help our argument!

We had no problem with the local cops During the hour long bannter with the Highway Patroll, they said the LOCAL Lafayette Police would come and give us the order to move.
The local cops arrived and essentially refused to tell us any such thing! In fact one of them quiped to me they don't listen to the HP or take orders form 'em. LOL. Eventually the Highway Patroll had to order(?) us off.
Imporatnt to note, our own flagbrigade gets all the credit and honor for putting most of this together. He puts a ton of work into these events and I'm proud of him.
