Why would some kid around the world want to wear some animal name for a team he has never heard of?



maybe the logo looks cool?

maybe he likes the colors?

Win a championship or two, with some young, exciting players, and Krewe can easily become something popular.



well, championships are the best marketing ploy there is.

in the meantime, you still need something to appeal to the masses. You can't just count on a championship. The odds of winning one are small.

wouldn't teh fact that someone doesn't know what the Krewe is, possibly increase the chance that they will maybe get online and research what it is?


i guess they could. i doubt they would be able to relate to it though.

I cant take credit for it as I got it from somewhere else. It is perfect though

PRIDE, Lion, Black and Gold = mass appeal IMO

New Orleans Pride or the Pride of New Orleans




Sorry, but Pride is NOT a good idea. I have many gay friends, but I don't want to have every opposing fan making the obvious gay pride jokes that New Orleans culture would justify.

If Pride doesn't sound like a fricking WNBA team then I don't know what does.

It really is awful. Not even because of the gay thing either. It just sounds like a WNBA team. Probably the same people that suggested the New Orleans Spirit or New Orleans Rhythm.

So Vitrano thought – how could New Orleans get the Jazz back? One idea he had was to change the Hornets to “The Mormons” in an effort to force Utah’s hand and trade them for the team name.
