Definitely glad they painted them BLUE , but I don't like this new graphics at all. Cheap looking to me. Much rather have seen the new interlocking UK logo. What do you think?

This look hideous.

The font does not even match.





Does anyone have Mitch's # ? He needs to be alerted of this.
Not only that. The use of 'til is usually frowned upon. Looks like they had Herby the painter come up with something. Why waste money on design?

Good Lord, that is truly awful. That needs to be painted over immediately. Going to look TERRIBLE, especially among the renovations. Cheap, tacky, stupid. Give it a white UK logo for goodness sakes.
 
People complaining over some pretty silly stuff right now. What did you all expect? It's a a video board, not the Sistine Chapel ceiling.

What was wrong with this UK logo? There are some places where LESS is more and this is one of them..I mean the blue is fine, but just put a white UK logo on there or something, my goodness..I know we'll get labeled "negative nellies" or whatever, but it's because head-scratching stuff like this continues to happen

Yep, it's just a football field, let's paint it pink..come on dude..this is a multi-million dollar business where pleasing the FANS is your first priority..if football AD's used your logic they wouldn't worry about appearances at all...just because something isn't the Sistine Chapel doesn't mean appearances should be thrown out the window
 
IMO, it almost looks like it's temporary because the paint color and the color around "til the battle is won" are two different colors.
 
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that's likely a vinyl applied graphic and not painted.
 
Since there is a crane there with someone working on it, I would say that isn't the finished product. Why won't you guys slow down a bit and save your bitching for when it is finished if you don't like it? It may surprise you when it's FINISHED.

No, it's not just a football field. It's not a football field at all. It's the back of a video board. The back. The part that nobody will be looking at during the game, and probably won't care about enough to look at the back of before, or after the game, because people will either be tailgating or going home. Far too busy to stare at the video board and curse Mitch Barnhart for putting words from the fight song on the back of it.
We have a terrific field. Look at it, it's very nice. The logo is being put in several places on the field. Let's try not to overdo it. People know where they are playing when they go to Lexington, they don't need 50 massive logos painted throughout the stadium to help them figure it out.
It's a multi-million dollar business where pleasing fans is the top priority, but do you know what I care about more than what's written on the back of the video boards? How our players are playing on the field. That's what will please me. If this is something that will keep you from enjoying your game-day experience, and keep you from buying tickets and supporting our team, then shame on you. This is the most trivial thing that you could possibly pick to complain about regarding our stadium.
 
I don't necessarily think it looks great, but I do like that phrase in our fight song and like that we are trying to incorporate it more often.

This is the fan of 2010 when joker was here. We have moved on and improved maybe you should too.
