London 2012 Olympics Logo Disaster |
LONDON, UK (Team Geared Up) - It’s all over the papers here, I snapped the above shot on route to work in the Metro. It’s being compared to graffiti, a swastika, and even Lisa Simpson performing a sex act.
A cartoon in the paper had two sprinters running past a placard at the games with the speech bubble “I hope that designer can run fast too!”. It cost them £400,000 in consultancy & design fees to produce that. Oh dear. Oh dear.

I quite like it. I saw an interview with Coe and he said he hopes retailing of the brand will make them £500,000,000!
Is that seriously the official logo or just a suggestion? That’s disastrous! It’s just awful! The Athens one was so beautiful, how could they end up with this….
oh that’s it alright. http://main.london2012.com/en/news/archive/2007/June/2007-06-04-12-06.htm

I hate it.

I’d buy a t-shirt or something with the logo printed on it!
It looks like
“A Man standing with his Penis out and a Girl on Knees sucking it”
