Lee. Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 So over at the Blue Bomber website, they have something called the Virtual Venue, which allows you to see the vantage point of any seat in the new stadium, purchase tickets, etc etc.What's interesting is, the Lightning Ball logo is nowhere to be found when perusing the new facility.Does this mean the Bombers are going with the old W logo full-time? The center field and end zone graphics would certainly have us believe this.Discuss. Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthStar74 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I hope so but I like the current lightning W logo.. the old style W helmet and the jerseys would be wonderful for sure... let's wait see if the Bombers will do this or not?

habsfan1 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 From what we see so far on their virtual venue, there's the retro W but it appears to be in current colors. If they go with something like that, I'll be pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I like the lightning ball logo as a modern update of the old logos. Always felt the white W on the gold helmet was a bit underwhelming. But, like hasbfan1 says, if it's the retro logo in modern colours, I can live with that.

But, like hasbfan1 says, if it's the retro logo in modern colours, I can live with that.My preference would be the modern logo in retro colours. I've never been a fan of just using a block letter as a logo (though it's preferable to using wordmark.) Four of the teams have used it in the past for helmet decoration, and I was happy to see the demise of the last of them when Winnipeg went to it's current look. I wouldn't even mind if they developed a logo that echos what the Winnipeg Jets did and played off of a military theme. I do like the lighter blue used in the uniforms of the '70s and '80s, they were the one good look in a long history of bad uniforms...

habsfan1 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 There's a chance that there won't be any football at all on the logos and they might only just use the W. Some people might find that look bland and boring, but I find it very classy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMac12 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I kinda like this. I'm not saying the current logo is bad, but the renderings looks classy and tradional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
