I've heard someone mention Magnolias, and that's my vote. State bird to State Flower.

I was in Disneyworld last week and noticed, in addition to the Saints and LSU shirts, I saw a few Pelicans shirts and hats. I guess it's catching on.

The takeover is underway. Does anyone have pics of themselves or others at games rockin the Pelican gear?

Budget is tight at the moment, so i'm holding out hope that Wally World releases their knockoff line soon. :crytear:

Dude the shirts are 22 bucks Stealth :hihi:

that's going to lead to bad "pollinating the Magnolias" jokes... or at least I would believe it would

Stop trying to trade him and keep him healthy. He, Davis, and Rivers together can give the Pelicans their best seasons ever.

You are correct, I left out Anderson. But I was too busy trying to change the fact that I put that post in the wrong thread.

:coolg:

Just didn't want him to feel left out.

got a red pelicans hat with the fluer de lis version. left it at IHOP the other night but the waitress happen to save it because she love it. got it back lol

...I don't even know anymore.

Hopes are high for Davis. Rivers will come around and be a clevery, cagey buy. But Gordon? Keep him healthy. Easier said than done.

Haha. When I hear The Fly Girls I think about the dancers on that old show In Living Color.

I have two different T'SSS and also two Pelicans Hats. The new era hat store on Canal Street has all five of the Pelicans logo fitted caps. I'll be wearing my Pelicans gear to all of thePelicans game i attend the rest of the season. GO PELS!!!!!!!!!!

Has anyone bought any of the flat brim hats and curved them yet?

I didn't know people still shop in the river walk

I forgot the Riverwalk still existed. Hadn't been there since I was 12.

thank goodness for the tourists :)

Riverwalk's getting renovated soon too.

the riverwalk is serious crap. The only reason I go there is if I'm staying near the river at the Hilton and I want Cafe Du Monde's. lol

Just found this on the fansedge website. Could this be the font they will use for numbers on the jerseys? Attachment 4689

I just want something that will be big and loud. The Main Logo or CCB is the best best, in my opinion.

The Fluer-de-bee is a much nicer logo, than the Bird-de-lis.

Already bought 2 shirts, the throw back looking tshirt in red and the long sleeve New Orleans pelicans shirt in blue, love them, but im still waiting for them to come in, its been like to freaking weeks.

I converted during our blowout against the Blazers.

I dont know. I like both. I guess when I looked the bird-de-lis logo on the site its not as potent as when you see it up close. Its pretty intimidating. but I think it will be nice regardless of what they do.

OK so I am trying to represent the Pelicans Friday. Who else is showing up with Pelican gear on? All I have is the shirt above, but I will something on.

By the way, I rarely call them the Hornets anymore. Its natural for me now. "Pelicans." "Pels." "Pellies" I get them all in

WOAH. Beautiful.

Still wish the blue was a shade or two darker. But those are grown man colors.

If basketball is like riots in the 60s these unis are a cop in riot gear ready to hose down.

Those are some throwbacks right there, I like a lot. Especially the away. However the away reminds me of ATL.

At first I just wanted to get use to it. However, now I believe it is the better name for the team. As I go around town and watch local commercials or tv spots about the state, I am noticing a lot of Pelicans on logos. Not the team logo, but the businesses or government logos with Pelicans on them. And when I see them, the team automatically pops into my head. I hope this does not sound stupid, and I do not know if you all are noticing the same thing, if so feel free to let me know.

Now I agree completely with the name change, as if Benson should care if I agree or not, and I can't wait until the Pelicans start the season.

Whether you like the name itself, it don't matter. Only someone who just likes to dislike things could not like the whole brand itself. The logo is excellent, the colors really pop. It's just a great look.

Can't wait to see the court and the unis.

I didn't have a problem with the bird itself just the name "Pelicans" is clumsy to say and "Pels" sound stupid IMO. It's not catchy at all. The logo is ok.
