Bookie Man Posted March 25 Posted March 25 Looks pretty cool to me. Like the logo brought to life. 1 Quote
Einstein Posted March 25 Posted March 25 Already discussed, but yeah, they look awful. We have a terribly ugly stadium and now terribly ugly bison. This would have been much better (and timeless). 31 minutes ago, GASabresIUFan said: Reminds me of the Falcon in front of Mercedes That’s a realistically designed metal eagle. Not a geometric nightmare eagle. Thsts the big difference. Had the Bills gone with a realistic Bison metal design, that would have been fine. 2 2 1 7 Quote

All to say, do we really care? This seems like a chance for haters to hate, about something very few of us actually attending the games will think twice about. I forget if you have season tix? 1 Quote
machine gun kelly Posted March 25 Posted March 25 I love it. The stress on family (Mafia), the coloring, etc. I don’t know if they placed the famous Marvism, “Where would you want to be” on the bottom which would’ve been cool to celebrate our history as a Bills family, but sure it will be fine. I look forward to our first game hopefully this year or the next. We try to fly up for one a year. Quote

DrDawkinstein Posted March 25 Posted March 25 36 minutes ago, NoSaint said: honestly, hard to project but I feel like the statues are fine but the stripes kind of weirdly included- not sure the better method. Just feels clunky and maybe unneeded. I dont mind the stripes if they're going with the polygon/artsy approach. Might as well go all in. I think I wouldve preferred something more realistic. At least theyll be pretty big. Quote
ColoradoBills Posted March 25 Posted March 25 So they kind of look like the outside of the stadium. That's pretty cool. Can't wait to get a picture of them with me standing in front. Quote
GottaRun Posted March 25 Posted March 25 I think the images so far are horrific, hopefully I'll be blown away by the real thing. Quote
davefan66 Posted March 25 Posted March 25 Welp. Not what I imagined they would look like. I will reserve judgement until I see them up close. Quote

In person with the atmosphere of game day I bet it's awesome They got a legitimate renowned artist it's going to be a piece of art .. anybody could just cast bisons that's not making it special I work for a global toy brand that specializes in detailed, realistic animal figurines. I assure you, “anybody could just cast bisons” couldn’t be further from the truth. Sloppy, “bison shaped” statues? Sure, anybody could “just cast” that. I think what you’re saying…and apologies, not trying to put words in your mouth…is that realism just ain’t your jam. And that’s fine. That’s what makes art worth fighting for…that any two people could feel wildly different about a piece and neither of them would be wrong. Me? I’d prefer a realist sculpture. A bison is just such a massive, hulking, gorgeous animal…few creatures like it, and too few remaining. I could live without a giant Disco Bull. 4 2 Quote

One thing I will never get about our name, I really cant remember any merch or logo will the Bill Cody part. I mean lets be honest, we really are the Buffalo Buffaloes. 1 Quote
billieve420 Posted March 25 Posted March 25 (edited) They look pretty meh from what was shown but maybe it will look better once it is up. However, when the novelty wears off will be quickly forgotten. Edited March 25 by billieve420 Quote

He doesn’t. But whatever. He’s on a mission against this stadium. Do people understand this is a football stadium? We aren’t going to a dinner party. They took the idea of bison, combined it with the team logo, and created a cool, modern concept. Lots of things would/could have been cool…and this is one of them. 1 2 Quote

Maybe we could get ahold of him... maybe @Green Lightning could help out here! Edited March 25 by Sierra Foothills Quote
