Does no one see an arm coming in from the right, sticking its finger into the horse's nostril?

 

It’s a horse vomiting the Space Needle.

I can't say I ever actually misconceived what the SIUe logo is considering I have a whole bunch of family in Edwardsville and the athletics logo rarely appears without "COUGARS" right underneath it, but I swear this thing looks like a demon beaver and not a cougar. And honestly, the SIUe Demon Beavers would be a much more unique mascot and I would fully support it.

Can it be called a misconception if no one can tell what it is in the first place? (See also University of Denver)

As an alum of SIUE, who was a student when this logo was unveiled, I thought it looked like a beaver too when it first came out and I remember others thinking it looked like a falcon or a sabertooth tiger. Such a terrible logo, and I can't believe it has lasted over a decade.

When I was younger, I thought it was like a fancy-tipped jousting lance-type thing

For years I had no clue what a clipper was and thus the Clippers logo made no sense to me. Then I found out it's a type of ship and I also came across their old San Diego logo which had abstract sails in it, and it all came together.

Is this thread dead? If it's not, i had to tell. 

 

 

When i saw Guelph Storm(OHL) 's old logo, My first thought is a angry rhinoceros running in a tornado variation like Tasmanian Devil from Looney Tunes.

The tornado's tooth/fang looks like a rhinoceros' horn especially.  

 

It's not a great logo.

When I was younger, I believed the NFL Q.B. Club logo was a bird.  Pardon the crude illustration example.

Ditto, I was very confused as to why the logo was shouting out the ravens.
