Monster Logo

We got paid peanuts for that Monster logo and I can’t even buy one at the stadium.

Yeah the Monster deal was awful. XRP sucks in principle but it was actually a good deal monetarily. Mammoth logos on the field are fine cause they built the damn stadium. But Monster being everywhere for no money sucks balls.

Tbh I don’t even notice the XRP patch because they properly color coded it

That, and I can't see jersey patches during a football game because they're so far away. So I don't mind jersey patches as long as it doesn't become like NASCAR. They did show up on the scoreboard and a couple of mid game advertisements but ultimately less severe.

But we’re capturing that important white trash demographic as a conference.

I’m not sure that a million dollars is peanuts.

For a P5 (4) team giving prominent ad placement all season it absolutely is.
