Alumni Hall in Bristol has apparel featuring the vintage Bucky. Not the smurf, the good one. The worker there said they also have them in Johnson City. Just a heads up.

To me........that's hilarious. For the university to spend money, and LOTS of pub, on the new logo, and then now this. And if indeed this is the 'new thing', it shows the waste of all that effort, if "what's old is now new again". IMO.

That isn't how any of this works.

What does it matter? In 5-10 years there will be new logo. If enough fans don’t buy the retro stuff it will fade away. Capitalism!
