Box and Won Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 I wish they'd go back to that old logo - it's "tougher" looking, if that makes any sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pakapablo Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 The old logo is much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iggy Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 I like the logo with the Billiken in a seated position with his feet sticking out. Like the statue outside of West Pine. That's a classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetorch Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 Bring back the old Logo!!!!!!!!!! I remember when they changed it in the late 80s. The smurf Billiken is a disgrace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billiken Rich Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 The new one is just fine. Did anyone see the billiken fling a free sandwich to a spectator last game (sec 116?) The bloody thing came unwrapped and the poor bastage caught the bread leaving assorted meat and veggies sprayed all over the place. He (or she) came up to apologize...... The worst billiken had to be the old mascot costume the was used at the old Kiel. That one looked drunk, with big droopy eyes. Madd would've been the only organization scared by that thing.....

billiken_roy Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 BILLIKEN RICH SAID, "The worst billiken had to be the old mascot costume the was used at the old Kiel. That one looked drunk, with big droopy eyes. Madd would've been the only organization scared by that thing..... " was that the one that had the striped vest and straw hat as well? that was probably as embarrassing as it goes. it reminded me of the elephant man playing the piano at shakey's pizza.

SLUBandTBone Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 The old Billiken is way better than the current version of just the face or the one with the basketball. Also, I haven't seen the old physical mascot but the current one got new eyes last year and he looks like he's tripped out. It may be just me but I'm no fan of the eyes. I hope someone else noticed this so I don't look dumb! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLU_Nick Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 The old billiken is too shady looking. It looks like anyone with this logo would be a criminal. Give it to cinci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Box and Won Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 But the old billiken is a more accurate representation of what a billiken really is. Billikens don't wear turtleneck sweaters and bell-bottoms, for pete's sake! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guest Posted February 13, 2005 Author Share Posted February 13, 2005 who cared if it looks shady the new one looks is as intimidating as the youngstown st logo is ( a penguin is not a good mastcot) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
