Milwaukee just plain-out sucks.
I don't know if you've seen this TED Talk, but if you haven't, you definitely should!
Other flags on here have similar high notes--Tampa choosing a non-rectangular shape, San Fran's phoenix icon, St Paul's simplicity--but in the end, they could use a little help. A friend showed me that TED talk right after I published these quizzes for the first time. I learned the Ted Kaye quote I referenced above after hearing Roman Mars quote it in this talk.

The escutcheon is fascinating, with a fleur de lis of France, the Castile of Spain, and the Victorian era (pre-northern-Ireland-red-diagonals) flag of Great Britain.
