    ...As for the club name, it seems they are dead set on spelling out the "Saint" in "St. Louis"--funny since not even the post office does that there. Any particular reason for that?

     

    "Saint" and "Louis" are both 5-letter words, which does give it a nice balance, e.g. for logos, stadium signage, soccer scarves, etc. I guess that could be one aesthetic reason for spelling it out.

    UPDATE: Rochester, Minnesota is down to two finalists to replace it's flag.

    If you forgot what Rochester's flag looked like, here ya go:

    Both of them would be a huge improvement over their current flag. I am hoping the goose flag gets the nod, as I feel it has a bit more personality.

    While I can't find a picture of it, that looks a LOT like one of the finalists (not the actual one though) for Orlando's new flag.

     

    Now that you say it, yeah, it looks a bit like options 1, 2 and 3 of Orlando's finalists mashed together (see below).

    And it also gives me dejavu vibes of Milwaukee's flag redesign winner:

    In any case, it's still a nice design.

     

    What are your favorites in Rochester's contest?

    So my former hometown of Rochester, Minnesota is holding a contest to replace...whatever the heck this is.

    They're doing a two round voting system with the intention of unveiling a new flag next spring. (link here.)

     

     

    I just saw that their round 2 voting is now open, so I thought I'd bump this thread so the forumites can cast their vote. Plenty of rubbish in there but also some nice ones. Overall, I think this round has some nicer designs than the first round. 

    To see all the entrants and cast your vote, follow this link:

    Here are my five favourites:

     

    No. 0222 - A cross to symbolise St. Mary’s Hospital on the left, and an abstract Plummer Building (Mayo Clinic) on the right.

    VplRLXwMYPmZaV4I2iN28TUzLIm6Rju2mQOCO8_R

     

    No. 0246 - Three geese in V-flight formation, symbolising "dedication", "intuition" and "care"

    iyRTU81hQQoRHExa5mLCs3ALQer517J4-JrRrEhW

     

    No. 0249 - A goose on the Zumbo River, in Mayo Clinic / IBM blue

    FRwdBMVy7v29zqOwo7UdTppkpaKF3XQKRXuFNOW9

     

    No. 0268 - A quartered cross to symbolise medical care, cardinal points on a compass, "debating, cooperating, or whimsically, elegant and having fun on the ice rinks" and geese "making a bee-line (or vee-line) for Rochester". I can't quite follow most of that symbolism, but hey, the design does look nice! ;)

    SbpFNUjyL8RYmUopOQnWmvDVZiXvvKmqRJw4kPHl

     

    No. 0281 - The North Star shining over Rochester

    ULM2RJO2QHd-u67Kwh4a7ox5Q1ajAc26VWcSPBjH
