Barcelona AC37

[Stingray~]

Shall we speculate a little about this coming 'in depth' series, the one the marketing lady in that radio segment thinks will thrive off 'controversy' and such for appeal? She mentions examples from F1 and tennis. Says that some of the controversy portrayed was denied by the athletes It suggests they like to go after that as part of their coverage, maybe even manufacture some it for exaggeration? Lol

All that aside, it will be interesting to see who among the AC teams take the 'opportunity' to buy into this. There is a real potential for 'fame' out of it.

Seriously that AC logo is awful. When if ever else did the venue feature in a logo paired with the Cup?

Shrug....

They look like D's to me??

 

[ChairborneRanger]

Every logo had something going on around the Cup, whether it was a B, or sails, or AMERICA looking like a bridge, the #33, or the name. It's no different.

Venue ones weren't lucky.

I agree. In a city famous for its design flair, this logo is underwhelming.

the colorful interpretations I saw looked like they brought the Barcelona engery to life a bit more.

Since B paid so much to ETNZ it makes sense they'd get prominence in the AC37 logo, I guess.

And B actually is a cool city from the vids I watched before booking a trip for the event. Beats the crap out of Cork, Malaga or f'ing Saudi Arabia.

^ Nice pics there.

You must go inside Gaudi's Apartment building, on to the roof, amazing.

That lady Leslie announced a few key dates I don't think we have seen published before.

The Alinghi guy Hodara will be a familiar name to some of us, dating back to when he quit after Alinghi lost the bunch of court cases that led to the 2010 DoG Match.

Sounds like they will be trying hard to convince Barcelona and the Catelonia region to care about the event. In 2007, Valencia turned out in huge numbers, could work.

I thought it has something to do with Bitcoin. Initially, I couldn't make sense of it, lol.
