TheSparks1 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 For whatever reason, I don't have permission to start my own thread, so I'll put it here.The Super Bowl XLII Logo is the worst SB Logo that I can ever remember. I know it represents the Southwest's colors, but still.... Regardless if the Patriots or Giants win, any SB Souvenirs that have the logo on it are going to completely clash with their colors. I went ahead and messed with the color scheme. I think it would look much better, or at least not look like a car door (yes, I know it's the State of Arizona). I'm interested in hearing your thoughts about them.People on the Patriots board said the logo looks like the ship from Buck Rogers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habsfan1 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Concepts need to go in the Concept thread, not the Sports logos thread.The current SB logo colors do not take my breath away, but it would get boring to use a red, white and blue logo every year.

I'm interested in hearing your thoughts about them.People on the Patriots board said the logo looks like the ship from Buck Rogers.First off, nice job on the recoloring.But think about this for a moment - the Superbowl is typically the most watched television event of the year, period. Advertisements begin weeks before the two participants are anywhere near determined. The longer you wait to release the logo, the less time you have to promote it. Sure, we all know what the Superbowl is but visuals help a lot with promotions and advertising. By your thinking, the only way to make sure the logo matches with the the Superbowl teams is to unveil it 2 weeks before the game, at the end of the conference championships. That's just not enough time. I like it when the Superbowl logo clearly reflects the colors/tradition/history/whatever of the state or city it's being played in. For the fans and players of the teams in the Superbowl, I doubt they care if any of the souvenirs clash with their team colors - they're just concerned with making it there and winning it.

Obviously it needs to be completed in advance. The Pats and Giants logos were something added just as a final touch. I was just showing how the colors (reflecting site area culture/traditions or not) make a big difference in the appeal of the logo, and potential post-super bowl products that may be sold. The logo is going to clash completely, regardless of who wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
