Below are the winners in the 2015 Texas Independence Day Texas flag flying contest as selected by Pratt on Texas.
Each winner will receive a Texas flag flown over the Texas Capitol on San Jacinto Day, 21 April 2015.
We had great entries from all regions but the KFYO audience really dominated this year. A 4th winner was added as Carl Tepper’s “Chairman’s Choice” as he was included in the judging this year after reminding all on-air while guest hosting that the contest was his idea several years ago! Congratulations to all and thanks to all who entered – all the photos were very nice this year. – Pratt

Great pics. You picked best in Texas
All amazing photos Robert! I’m proud of each individual represented here. And Chairman Tepper was/is right on. Glad he whined like a little girl to get his way.
Great choices. Hope that guy on the wind tower has his harness hooked Up
