Quick Glance: Australian 'Legend' Distributes Flags at Woolies
  • A man has been hailed as a 'legend' for distributing Australian flags outside a Melbourne Woolworths following the supermarket's decision to stop selling Australia Day merchandise.

  • The man, dressed in an Australian-themed shirt and Australian flag-printed hat, was seen standing outside the Woolworths store in Officer, 50km from Melbourne's CBD, with a trolley of handheld flags.

  • This comes after Woolworths sparked backlash earlier this month after announcing it would stop selling Australia Day merchandise due to a 'gradual decline.'

  • In a photo shared on social media, the man can be seen smiling next to a large Australian flag, holding up several smaller flags.
