I really miss our Hornets colors / brand

I'm flipping through League Pass and I got a heart pang as I caught a glimpse of the striking Hornets away unis in Portland just now. Boy do those pop - such a unique look and brand. The other night I saw Hugo (pronounced "Yugo" by the great Mike Breen) urging on the Charlotte faithful as the Hornets pulled away late at home over the Hawks.
I'm okay with the Pellies rebrand, but damn... I really miss the uniqueness of the colors, the FDB, and Yugo.

Not me the Hornets brand never fit in nola. The Pelicans fits nicely in nola and the gulf coast region.

Our Hornet jerseys sucked, tbh

I don't really miss the old brand
But I do sort of find our jerseys and color scheme to be pretty meh and generic
I hope this aspect improves in the coming years

I know what you mean.
I also miss the FAN UP tower Hugo was riding in from the Mavericks playoff series a few years back. I still don't understand it, but damn did I cheer when it blew up.

Just would've liked another color scheme. Red and blue at far too common in the NBA. Should've went with Mardi Gras colors

I liked the original Hornets colors but that creole blueshit was uglier than IRL 1.
Pelicans>>>>>>>>>>>Hornets as far as NOLA is concerned.

There was nothing "unique" about the Hornets brand in New Orleans. It is back in Charlotte, where it belongs.

Tar heel blue belongs in the tar heel state

It seems like everyone else has gotten over the Pelicans/Hornets re-brand. Maybe we should too.
Posted on 11/14/14 at 6:52 am to SirWinston
I do miss Hugo. He was awesome. But in this case we had to throw the baby out with the bathwater so that we could come out ahead with a much more fitting rebrand. I think everything worked out perfect for both franchises.

I miss it too. I spent 10 years as a hornets fan, it's not easy to just turn that "off" and root for a totally new team.

Half the teams have red and blue color schemes. I agree 100%.
