As an American, I’ve never seen one of these, but many people really believe in honoring the American flag and treating it well, so this isn’t that odd to me
When I was a kid, I was told that you were supposed to burn a flag if it touched the ground so, being a kid and fascinated by fire, I would go to great lengths to make sure flags found their way onto the ground so I could burn them. I would have been immensely disappointed if this had been a thing instead.
