THE TKC CAPTION CONTEST!!! PLEASE TELL US WHAT THE NEW CONVENTION AND VISITORS ASSOCIATION LOGO LOOKS LIKE!!!



It kinda looks like an asterisk. Which should note that Kansas City is NOT as friendly as the rest of the Midwest.

Here's the headline:

The Kansas City Convention and Visitor Association revealed its new tourism brand and logo.

I'm not sure what message the logo is trying to send BUT it's kind of retro, blue and has very little color so it seems exactly like something the guys at the CVA would develop.

    Well if you didn't know what it was suppose to mean you would never understand it.


    Just more idiot stupidity by the people in charge in KC.

    To me a toilet bowl swirl would be more fitting.

    It looks like an excellent graghic representation of KCMO's strategy and priorities. Which is to say spend money and move in whatever direction the loudest person in the room is demanding from city hall at any given time.
    And I fell certain this "professional" job cost well into five figures even though there's no money to keep community centers open later.
    A city that works.
    Just not for you.

    I'm not someone who usually looks to needlessly jump on someone or something for no good reason.

    And I'm a supporter of the CVB.

    But I have to admit ... this logo is particularly lame.

    If you have ever read "Breakfast of Champions" By Kurt Vonnegut you would immediately recognize what that symbol is.

    It is twin assholes.

    Circulate this logo, rename Prospect MLK Avenue, have the All Star Game, spend money on the streetcar, and build the downtown hotel, and KCMO will become a world class city.
    And if Charlie Wheeler gets on the KCPS board, maybe they can pay for the next Olympics.

    This is the absolute worst design ever. A fourth grader could do much better. It's embarrassing, and yes, whoever did this shitAss design should be fired.

    This is the stupidest logo I have seen in some time. What untalented art director came up with this, and what moron in CVA thought it was a good logo?

    It doesn't SAY anything or CONVEY anything.

    FAIL!

    This logo makes no sense whatsoever. Probably a friend of Bill George's created it. They're probably French.

    Hmmm...a couple of thoughts on the CVA logo:

    1: Your tax dollars are being wasted again.
    2: Another lame KC attempt to be artsy fartsy.
    3: It's a logo that accomplishes about as much for the CVA as the CVA does for KC...which isn't much.
    4: The Dead Kennedys should sue.
    5: I can't believe someone got paid for that.
    6: It looks like one of the rejected WalMart logos before they switched to the new asterisk.
    7: Just because you bought that $9.99 bargain bin logo creation software doesn't mean you can make anything good with it. But we have proof someone tried.

    In short: EPIC FAIL!

    3:35 which one are you? Rick Hughes or Bill George?

    This logo is ridiculous. It has no meaning and looks like a 9th grade geometry assignment. Geometry is actually more attractive and meaningful than this logo.

    If the commentators on this comedy blog are any indication, it is way too good of a logo to represent you losers. Get back to jerking it to photos of Alonzo.

    Bill George has worn out his welcome about everywhere but the CVA. He controls the place and nothing gets done there without him in the middle of it. Oh...and the logo does suck.

    Rick, when is your contract up?

    Bill, aren't you needed in France? You certainly are neither needed nor welcomed here.
