hoping you meant to write that the TOP square in a column flashes when you
"drop a token" down that column;

All squares start white.  Only the bottom square turns red or black, after
perhaps a .3 second delay during which there is some jitter in white squares
above, which could be the effect of white flashing white.

the top one for me and the bottom one for you ... is that something that can
happen because of a bug?

I am running on Windows 10 from IDLE (which should not affect your code) with
3.7.0a2 with tk 8.6.6. The OS and tk version could have an effect, though top
versus bottom is hard to fathom.
