"Give them a free ticket!" Widnes Vikings flag causes a stir at Glastonbury

No matter the day or time, it seemed to pop up in every crowd scene with viewers spotting it during The Killers' set, Royal Blood, Radiohead and the Foo Fighters. 

And it even garnered the respect of Widnes Vikings star Chris Houston and Warrington Wolves Ashton Sims.

It resulted in some suggesting the flag owner should have a free ticket to the next game while others offered a free bobble hat.

Whoever it is with the greatest @WidnesRL club flag should have a free ticket for our next home game

That flag at Glastonbury has probably got Widnes a bigger exposure than the entire Vikings advertising budget.

The Killers singing Mr Brightside was amazing enough but when the Widnes flag comes flying across the front! Even better 😂 #Glastonbury2017
