Captain Kangaroo Posted June 24, 2022 Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 The logo isn’t centered, and is atop the “50”? Strange… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, isn't it painted on? 🤔 Edited June 24, 2022 by blueandgold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean they aren't going to put the Akron wording on the 10 yard line either? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewbrooman1 Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 The yardline numbers aren't straight either, so it can't be a finished product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Let'sGoZips94 Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 What a home field advantage that would be. WR takes it to the house on us for a 65 yard TD, drops the ball in celebration at the Akron name, and we return it for a fumble TD. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shows JoMo's confidence that we will control the red zone. Brilliant idea. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akzipper Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Looks just about done. I'm sure we'll get some better shots of the finished field soon. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akzipper Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 I think a lot of the people strongly opposed to the new logo will come to love it. It looks awesome on the field and gear I've seen athletes wearing this summer. Nice, clean, modern and professional. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy5 Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 My only really petty minor complaint would be that I wish one endzone said "ZIPS" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjim Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Wow!! It sure looks fantastic. I cannot wait until the first game and kickoff. I am so proud to be an Akron Alumnus. I have learned to love the new logo. Go Zips!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GP1 Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 I had heard once that an stadium owner has to store an old field for legal reasons for a certain number of years regardless of the length of service or size of the material. For example, a stadium like where the cowboys play has to save the end zones they use just for one game for a certain number of years. If Akron has to store the old field, where will it be?
