webdav Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Being an actual resident of Billings, MT, does my opinion count for more? I like the colors here better than the dark red. Why? Because anything Blue & Gold or Maroon & Silver is automatically associated with one or the other of Montana State or Montana. You'd never see a Bobcats fan be caught dead in "dark pink." That's like asking an Auburn fan to wear red and yell "Roll Tide!" Billies is kind of a cool name. And we do have mountain goats in the Beartooth mountains just outside of Billings. Our junior hockey team being called the Bulls is cool because the stockyard is such a big part of Billings. Our minor league baseball team, the Mustangs is also accurate because we have wild horses just south of us in the Pryor mountains. I like the hidden mountains in the Billies logo. It reminds me of the old Great Northern Railroad logo. Their goat was named Rocky and they had a "Big Sky" train design that employed sky blue and granite gray for trains that went to Glacier National Park (which is nowhere near Billings, but that's another story.) Go Billies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ConceptLeagues Posted June 2, 2017 Author Share Posted June 2, 2017 @webdav Thanks for the bevy of information! Really helpful input. Seeing the Sky Blue with the gray really made my mind up on that combo. I was tinkering with the blue earlier, but it now has to be a part of this Billies identity for sure. I'm leaning heavily toward the Billies. That train pic is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NY_CFL_fan Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Just came in late to this thread, and I have to go with Grays -- I love the logo (especially the wedge shape, it's just much cleaner and looks sharper than the "spiky" shape). I like the copper and silver combination best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ConceptLeagues Posted June 6, 2017 Author Share Posted June 6, 2017 @Whittier S I'm leaning heavily toward the Billies. @NY_CFL_fan Thanks for the input. I do like the wedge, but I feel the Spikes give it more balance on a helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest darkpiranha Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Billies. Something about the ruff of the wolf still isn't gelling with me. But in spite of that, I still like the Billies better anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ConceptLeagues Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share Posted June 14, 2017 @darkpiranha The wolf, to wedge or not to wedge... Billies just seems to fit so well. Working on side by side uniforms for each. Coming soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
