Paris 2012 Olympics candidate flag

Paris 2012 Olympics candidate flag - Image by Arnaud Leroy, 14 April 2005

The flag is white with the logotype PARIS 2012, the S of Paris and the first 2 of 2012 forming a heart. The colours of the letters recall the colours of the Olympic rings, but not in the same order. VILLE CANDIDATE is written in black below the logotype. The Olympic rings are placed below the writing.

Stade Français-CASG

The flag used by the supporters of this rugby club reproduces the players' jersey. It is a blue field with three parallel red flashes with a white border. The hree flashes are stuck horizontally. Most flags used by supporters include STADE FRANCAIS in white over the flashes, but the largest flags seen in the stadium lack this writing.

Stade Francais plays in stadium Jean Bouin, in Paris, close to the Parc des Princes, and the club colours probably come from the traditional colours of Paris.
