At the beginning of May, a group of frat bros prevented a mob of angry occupiers at the University of North Carolina from touching or lowering the American flag.
This heroic moment in collegiate history was captured by the media, leading to the incident becoming viral. A GoFundMe campaign has gathered hundreds of thousands of dollars to reward the UNC heroes with an epic “rager” party.
Country music singer John Rich then offered to help put together a free concert for the frat boys, leading to the coining of “Flagstock” as a play on Woodstock, the epic rock concert in the summer of 1969.
The term Flagstock turned viral as well, leading to the registration of at least three domains, Flagstock.org, Flagstock.us, and Flagstock.live (thank you Dale G. for the tips.)
But it’s the matching .com domain, Flagstock.com that’s shrouded in mystery. Owned by HugeDomains, Flagstock.com was offered for $2,895 dollars in 2021 and chances are that it retained the same asking price since. The domain was available to acquire until last week when its lander changed.
Currently, it displays the standard HugeDomains lander with a search. So has the domain been sold, or has HugeDomains quickly removed it before someone could snatch it at a seemingly bargain price?
We’ll have to wait a little longer to see what might happen. Meanwhile, Flagstock.info forwards to a Russian porn site.
