Does anyone remember
« on: October 21, 2018, 11:40:26 PM »
In the 70s Auburn did the award sticker thing for a few years.  

I'd like to see that logo again.  Anybody remember what it looked like or have a photo of it?

No, no, not the Obama stickers that were passed out every time a rule friendly to islamics, against common sense or anti-American was created.  I'm looking for those AU stickers that looked like eagles.  This would be about 1977 or 78

For some reason, I thought they were paws that looked like the Clemson logo.  I have searched the googled chromes with no luck though.  I probably have a book or an old newspaper clipping at home that has a picture of them somewhere.

It seems like every time you go online you're two clicks away from black cocks.

You could try asking Posing Plainsmen on the twatters.

I know for sure they were eagles. Barfield, I’m pretty sure, started the practice of putting them on helmets for big plays (like OSU with the buckeyes and UGA with the bones). 

Dumb story but I copied them for softball when I was helping coach a women’s team in 1980.  

There was some story back then about how they were designed and what the angles/curves represented.  I’ve got kids in college doing marketing research and I thought they’d be a good example of an idea that wasn’t bad but was rejected by the consumer.  Everybody else is doing New Coke. Ha. 

I didn’t expect the story of the helmet stickers being this hard to find.
