phocused Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 I'm probably the last one on the board to recognize this so excuse me if I'm slow.I just noticed a few nights ago the Flyers started using their main logo on their helmets. I beleive they used the Flyers wordmark as recently as last season. (?)The interesting part is they use a reversed version on the left side sweeping the wings to the players back on both sides. (see picture). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewYawkSeahawk Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 That makes sense since the tail of the "Flyer" is show movement in a forward pattern.Alot of teams do that when they logos that are supposed to be showing forward movement.Seahawks, Broncos, Eagles..... to name a few.You are right though, on the Flyers it looks weird backwards! www.briandoakes.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSUCub Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Funny you mention it, since I almost posted about the same topic last night. I'm a diehard Flyers fan who normally wouldn't miss a game on TV if I were at home, but up here at school, I've only been able to catch whatever games are on national TV, so I'm not positive, but I believe the reversal of the logo on the one side didn't occur until partway through this season. I remember initially noting that they had switched from using the wordmark, because I prefer the use of the logo, but then I remember seeing it again and being surprised to discover one side was now flipped.

philly97flyer Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 i did notice that justin williams' road helmet still has the normal logo on both sides, but his home helmet has the normal logo on the right side and the retarted logo on the left.

Brick Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 Wake Forest football used to have a logo that looked correct on the left side of the helmet, but they reversed the F on the right side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yh Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 The Blues used to have a flipped logo helmet decal as well, but discontinued it in the mid 70's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
