brycewyatt1 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I read an article this weekend talking about the Rays having a 20th anniversary patch for next year, but it should be this year. I decided to take initiative and design my own Rays 20th anniversary patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 The first season was 1998 though. 20th season, yes. 20th year, no. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGeeX5 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Looks ok for a banner around the stadium but its too long for a patch. I'd want them to incorporate the ACTUAL Ray, not that awkward shine thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBGKon Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 2017 is the 20th season of play, 2018 would be the 20th anniversary of play. Teams seem to do what they please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panthers_2012 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Well this should be in concepts since it's just that, a concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubsfan2015 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Besides the obvious error, this looks like a great concept. But I think you should put some element of the Devil Rays in there but that's just my 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this. I feel like when teams (especially newer teams) have some type of anniversary logo, they try to incorporate elements of all of their previous identities into the logo. I feel that this logo should have the devil ray in there somewhere, as they were the Devil Rays for around half of their existence so far. I'd even like to see some type of incorporation of their old wordmark(s), although I definitely see how that would be difficult to do while keeping the logo looking cohesive.

How anyone could like that starburst over a devil ray is beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazberg Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 The primary logo at the top dominates the design; I don't think it's even necessary. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
