Discrim Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 http://rockcats.com/ROCK CATS TO HOLD OPEN HOUSE OCTOBER 21st"Family Fall Classic" to include food, games, unveiling of NEW Rock Cats logoThe Rock Cats cordially invite you to a one-of-a-kind, first-time event: The Family Fall Classic, to be held Saturday, October 21st at New Britain Stadium from Noon until 6:00 P.M. Bring your family and friends out to the ballpark for food, rides, stadium tours, games, giveaways, activities, and much more. The event, which coincides with the first game of the World Series, is FREE and OPEN TO EVERYONE! The Rock Cats do ask, however, that in lieu of admission guests bring a non-perishable food item for donation to the Rock Cats annual Holiday Food Drive. In addition, next week the Rock Cats will be unveiling a new primary logo, and merchandise featuring this new logo will be available for purchase at our team store, The Third Base Shoppe. DON'T MISS THIS EXCITING EVENT at New Britain Stadium. The Rock Cats management and staff look forward to seeing you on Saturday, October 21st!can't say I'd miss the about-to-be-old logo. I like it and all, but I won't be screamin out that it's the best out there, that couldn't be further from the truth. Several other AA teams, like the EL's Defenders, SL's Diamond Jaxx and TL's Drillers, have far better identities than the Cats do IMO.

wman Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Maybe they're going back to "Hardware City". That was a masterstroke... Bring back the Whale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powersurge Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I wish they were still the Brit Sox that I grew up with, but alas when you don't have an affiliation with Boston anymore you can't do that. I hate that dumb Elvis cat looking thing, and I hate the name Rock Cats. So dumb its scary. The commercials are even worse "The New Britian Rock Cats...these cats ROCK!" anything having to do with Rocking or Rolling or anything of that nature is so archaic. Its like anytime I see some washed up rock band get up on stage and say "Do you wanna Rock?" I just think how old that makes them sound. Rock is dead, get over it and move on. Hopefully they won't call them the "Rappin' Pussies" or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian in Boston Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Hmmmmm... not my favorite amongst Dan Simon's logo packages. My thoughts... * I like the overall layout of the logo, as well as the "nostalgic" font in which Rock Cats is rendered. I also like the "RC-Paw" secondary.* That said, while Rocky's tail says "Rock Cats", his partially-hidden face and ears strike me as saying "Rock Rats". Maybe it's just me.While it's better than what they had, I don't think it's a "home-run". More of a solid "stand-up double". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted October 18, 2006 Author Share Posted October 18, 2006 heh, the new one does look like something I caught about four weeks ago it sure doesn't much resemble any cat I've seen.

powersurge Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Better than what they have now, but I can do without the whole 'cat' thing. Its a little annoying if you ask me. The 'nb' logo is so nicely done that it should be the main logo on everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
