2009 Breeders' Cup Logo

Boring. My 9yo son would have thought of something FAR cooler. It looks like a graph on the economy. YUCK.

Looks like the mountains are made of ProRide.

Poignant, yet not overbearing.

I dont know what the hell I am talking
about.

Is it being held in the Rockies this year? LOL

Oh my god...

It's last year's logo.. with a graph showing the decline in BC foal nominations.

Wait until they announce that grandstand seats are $2000. That's about par for the direction they've gone in recent years.

looks like they were trying to show backdrop @ Santa Anita, very weak logo. looks more like Aspen or Vail.

I paid $50 for the best seats in the house

I believe it looks more like the EKG of the bankruptcy judge..............

it does not matter. who even looks ? whats more telling is two years at the same sight on poly crap. then the powers that be scratch their heads wondering why handle is down and so is interest in the event. of course they're going under, this is the generation of lost causes across the board, its even found its way into managing racing. add it to the car industry, AIG and all the banks that are failing.

Danzig 04-02-2009 02:17 PM

it's not much, but how much can you really do with a logo?

bc should be at churchill every year; far and away the highest bc handle days are there.

Sucky logo for a sucky event.

ateamstupid 04-02-2009 04:20 PM

It looks more like sharp ocean waves than mountains.

lol it really does look like a line graph

From what I remember of the Derby logo and what I saw of the London 2012 Olympics logo, this should win awards. To paraphrase The Princess Bride, at no point did I see it and go 'oh dear God what is that thing?' "Eh" is a perfectly fine reaction given what could've been. I don't like celebrating mediocrity normally but really, some days it feels like that's a step up.
