Question for stAte fans
I just notice this, and I would like to get a little more clarification on the subject:
With you stAte logo, is there or have y'all ever noticed the Easter egg tribute to your old mascot/nickname?

stAte was our logo before we changed nicknames.

I mean with the actual logo, not the wolf but the stAte.
Bc when you look at the A, you see a broken tip spear. Look at the bottom part of the A & the A hole.

I don't think it's intentional. I've never noticed it previously.

That's like the arrow in the Fed-Ex logo, I'll never unsee it now.

I saw several Ark State license plates in New Orleans this weekend. You guys have a very distinctive and good looking plate.

That's awesome! It looks to me like a well-done, intentional flip-off to political correctness and an ingenious, subtle tribute to your former mascot.

Inside the A in stAte it looks like a white arrow pointing up with the tip broken off.

This logo existed in the 80s, long before the PC BS took over.

FWIW, According to the helmet project, they started using that logo in 1980.

Unfortunately it's just pure luck.
But it's cool nonetheless.
