What a great shot.  I was looking at the USGA Rules site when spood posted.  Rule 24. Obstructions 

Definitions
All defined terms are in italics and are listed alphabetically in the Definitions section.

24-1. Movable ObstructionA player may take relief, without penalty, from a movable obstruction as follows:

b. If the ball lies in or on the obstruction, the ball may be lifted and the obstruction removed. The ball must through the green or in a hazard be dropped, or on the putting green be placed, as near as possible to the spot directly under the place where the ball lay in or on the obstruction, but not nearer the hole. 

The ball may be cleaned when lifted under this Rule.</description>

You were almost right. You were supposed to place the ball, not drop it, since you were on the green. 

Spood correctly quoted decision 17/6. Since the situation appears in the decisions, it probably happened to somebody else at some point in time.

Ask your other two guys what they would do if their ball rolled under a bench, or flew into a garbage can. Would they play it from there?? 

The rules of golf are written with the basic assumption that golf should be a game of skill.

They are very strict about playing the Course as you find it. But they are also very specific that artificial objects should not interfere with your game, since they are not a part of the course.</description>

A flagstick is a movable obstruction and Rule 24-1 applies. 
However, in taking relief the player may not place the ball in the hole. Therefore, in equity (Rule 1-4), the player must place the ball on the lip of the hole when taking relief. (Revised)

So in answer to yuor question ... You were right ... Free drop !

NICE SHOT!!!!!</description>
