Lee Noire Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 They haven’t all been home runs, but they still make each logo unique and I have to respect that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 The "bowl" (Arena, Super, etc.) is its own franchise, and just like an on-field franchise, should have its own logo and follow similar branding principles. The NFL has accomplished this. This Arena Bowl logo looks like an '80s Super Bowl logo. Hardly strong branding.

leopard88 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I think each event can stand on its own and warrant its own logo . . . particularly in the case of the Super Bowl because it has become such a major event. Otherwise, it's like saying the Olympics or the FIFA World Cup should have the same logo each time. If either "Bowl" requires use of the same logo year after year, it's the Arena Bowl. The game doesn't have a predetermined host, so there is no way to include local flair. However, I have no problem with using a different logo each year. To me, the best approach is to create unique logos with some type of unifying theme. For the Olympics, it is the rings. For the Super Bowl it can/should be the Vince Lombardi Trophy. For the AFL, it needs to be the league logo. As for this particular logo, I think it is generally well done. That said, the "Arena Bowl" wordmark should be bigger, though not necessarily the same size as the XXXI. Also, it would probably be helpful to outline the wordmark because red text tends to get lost against a blue background.
