Wow. Tell me that was State Farm and not OSU giving those out.
I've bitched about it for too long now. I know its a matter of personal taste, but OSU's marketing department and/or the designs they select from Nike are brutal. Don't think I've bought new Beaver gear for 5 years with the exception of the replica black OSU baseball hat. In desperate need of new T-shirts, mine are nasty gym worn rags now. At least I've got a good 10+ years out of that big ol grey hoodie with Beavers across the front.

There are probably, dozens of OSU shirts, hats, sweatshirts, etc. available at the bookstore, online, other stores, etc. That don't have the new logo on them, if you hate it so much. Many even have the old "Sailor Benny" on them.
Its not hard to find OSU gear without the new Logo.

I'm sure they are out there, although I did just go peruse the OS bookstore site and literally 90% of the Beaver t-shirts have Beavershark on it. I did see a plain white T with the good OSU logo, if I find it in black I will buy it, so thanks! I also tried to buy a Beaver Baseball t earlier this year but they were always out of xl. Hopefully it will pop up in spring. |

Just curious which one you like if you do not care for the new one? I played lacrosse there 00-04 and I absolutely HATED the logo then and wouldn't wear anything Beaver related with it on there. The beaver looked dumb and concerned. like that silly gopher meme from a few years back. Personally the "OS" and the new logo are much better IMO, but I do love the old Benny with the hat. Just my two cents. Cheers

I popped in the bookstore Saturday for a couple minutes and they have an entire section of old Benny gear. You can usually hunt around and find stuff a little (or a lot) cheaper online though - but it's out there.

In Eugene Stores like TJMaxx and Ross usually always have a decent selection of OSU gear, most with old Logo(s) or no logo. I'd recommend you check out there. There is also on occasion Oklahoma State gear as well...LOL! |

Well, your Benny's House avatar is the updated Beaver logo with updated Oregon State so it looks like you've really embraced the newer stuff. |

and for what it's worth, Mrs Ocho grabbed a yellow Beaver hat as she thought it would be the perfect white elephant gift for "one of the Duck a-Holes in my office".
This is why our marriage works.

At Parker Plaza in the State Farm tent Saturday night, they were giving out free hats and airbrushing the Beaver logo. Free yellow and white hats. ![]()  I'm pretty certain that is a good example of a branding violation. We don't sign off on putting that logo, on that background without the proper outline. communications.oregonstate.edu/trademark-licensing/design-guidelines/beaver-logoPutting it on a yellow hat doesn't necessarily violate anything, but good taste. |

Putting it on a yellow hat does violate the guidelines and I can't imagine it was approved. "The logo should never be placed on yellow products" Scroll down on the page linked by another poster. |
