As my boy 'Moo and I were sitting through our training class, he turned me on to a website called LogoShak that has a remarkably extensive collection of logos from sports teams and events. Since I needed something new for the blog (and because November has 30 days), I decided to list the 30 worst sports logos of all time. I designated 'Moo as creative director of the project since he a.) found the site before I did, b.) has a good eye for a bad logo, and c.) agreed to go through half of the logos on the site so that I didn't have to spend even more time than I already do with unproductive exercises. I will be listing one per day for the next 30 days. There was no strict criteria; it just had to look ugly. Sometimes the logos were too busy, some of them had terrible color schemes, and some were just way too plain. Regardless, we tried to put together list of the all-time worst for your enjoyment (or displeasure, whichever). Let's keep this train rolling...
#1 - Savannah State Tigers
And there it is!!! The worst logo in the history of sports. Savannah State University, take a bow! Honestly, it wasn't that close. Once 'Moo and I realized that this was a real logo and not a fake version created by a computer vandal from a rival school, we knew it was #1. Honestly, why do you have a logo that looks as if it were graffiti'd by someone who trespassed onto campus in the middle of the night? Smarter people than me run this university, and they have to know that that's not a good thing. Right? I mean, am I just being silly here? If I am, feel free to let me know. Whenever a new logo is designed, I'm sure fans from that team say, "well, I guess it's ok; at least it doesn't look vandalized like the logo for Savannah State." Wait, what? They don't say this? Well, they should. And that, my friends, is why the Savannah State Tigers officially have the worst logo in the history of sports. Man, that's terrible.
