Would take the bug/stick combo over that ridiculous bridge logo everyday.

The Capital building would be better than the bridge and that isn’t any good.

They should be the "Fighting Alton Sterling's"

They could give out CDs at the games..

I was gonna add one until I discovered that Gordon and his team submitted their own design for the team logo so we omitted it. Here's their submission

A Baton Rouge
B Crawfish
C Zydeco

Excellent branding choice by the team organization. The bridge logo is ridiculously bad. The fleur de lis?

The OPs "friends" version is even worse. Just lumping in more Cajun/Creole culture for laughs?

Official team statement on name Zydeco

quote:

Zydeco music, deeply rooted in Louisiana's cultural tapestry, traces its origins back to the early 20th century. Combining elements of blues, rhythm and blues, and Creole music, Zydeco's lively accordion-driven melodies and infectious rhythms have become a symbol of celebration and community in the region.

General Manager of the Raising Cane’s River Center Wayne Hodes expressed his excitement, saying, "We wanted a name that truly represents the spirit and energy of both Baton Rouge and Louisiana, and Zydeco captures that essence perfectly. This team will bring the exciting sport of hockey to the capital city while also offering affordable entertainment in an exhilarating environment for the fans."


More gems in there. Top notch marketing happening here.

Chicken fingers would be more fitting.

No, it’s the state capitol building.

I’ll be at the games but this name selection pretty much eliminated me buying any merch.

I don’t like zydeco music, I think the name is stupid and has nothing to do with BR…and if I’m being completely honest, has lessened my excitement for this new team.

I’d seriously rather be something generic like the eagles or the lions or some crap.

I would bask in happiness if we were the chicken fingers instead of the damn zydeco
