Is this what I think it is? A swingers flag? They were also Shriners so there's a chance it's related to that

I remember in my area, about 25-30 years ago, everyone was having these types of flags hanging outside, not pineapples, but the same style with the border. Not necessarily the swinging connotations of of these days. Did they ever go to Hawaii and talk about it a lot? Or, hey, maybe everyone is right, they were pretty hip.
