Chicago Olympic Logo


Chicago is in the running for hosting the 2016 Olympics...I don't really want to have it here because of all the mess, but whatever. I am super proud of the proposed logo...I think it is quite great! I posted this because of James and his post of the London 2012 Olympic Logo. Chicago is known for its captivating skyline and I think this is one of the most creative and representative logos of the host city...could just be my view because I am a Chicagoan!

They have a great chance--there are plenty of gangsters in Chicago to bribe the Olympic Organizing Committee and get them drunk and fix them up with hookers...

That's just a joke. (Yeah, right...)

I think the logo should be a huge deep dish pizza with a slice coming out of it.

Or a commodities trader jumping off of a building...

Good thing they aren't thinking about choosing a city with a poor skyline...

That's an AWESOME logo!

I want the Olympics to be in Chicago. Think of all the renovation to the city. For once, someone may clean up the mess in the South side!

Have you seen great big fuss about the new London Olympics logo launched here last night? God, its horrid - it looks like a swastika with a smacked arse...

Wow instead of my usual random "Detroit Sucks!" chants, I'm going to start new "London Sucks!" chants instead.

Zen:
That's what Chicago does best...mobsters and pizza!

Michael C:
Skyline is very important!

Jenny! said...

Yoda:
I don't think any amount of money or renovation would clean up the south side!

JJ:

The best comment about the London one was somebody today on the DanWagon indicating it looks like Lisa Simpson giving head.
