show the flag

Show up at a party or event just so people will see you and think you actually care about what's happening.

Probably from the days of gunboat diplomacy when warships would appear in foreign harbors to show that Great Britain, or some other colonial overlord, had a vested interest in the place.

I didn't really want to go to my cousin Noreen's birthday party, but I decided to show the flag and put in an appearance.

Flag Hunter

A Flag Hunter will hook up with any foreigner just to capture their flag. The flag is the prize/trophy a Flag Hunter is aiming for.

Of course that guy is a Flag Hunter… he banged that whale of a woman just for her flag.
