I work for a sports licensing company who is looking to make some Bowling Green product. One product we do features retro looks and I was searching the net for old BGSU logos and only found a couple. The current one as well as the Falcon head by itself are prominently featured, but not many other ones are out there. Does anyone know of any older BGSU logos that they used for athletics mainly (not university seal or anything) or have any resources I could persue?
Thanks for any information.

LOVED that one too!!ZiggyZoomba wrote:Maybe my favorite.
What year was the LT Falcon adopted? I remember them having a contest when the university had it's 75th anniversary.

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

Re: Old Bowling Green logos
That would have been '85, but I think the LT dates back to the 70s, IIRC. And the helmet project dates its use back to 1981.Falcon Fanatic wrote:LOVED that one too!!ZiggyZoomba wrote:Maybe my favorite.

Re: Old Bowling Green logos
Ziggy Zoomba, is that falcon legit? I couldn't find it anywhere listed on the sites I use to find old logos. I love that bird!
The company I work for is Party Animal. We currently do not have a BG license, but are exploring some options and trying to drum up some interest with some customers. We make high quality flags and banners and 3" toys called Lil' Teammates.
Thanks for all the information guys. Roll along!

Re: Old Bowling Green logos
I've seen it several times over the years and I have a shirt with that logo on it. I would surmise that it is legit.
Re: Old Bowling Green logos
It's legit.......I remember it well, but it was some time ago, maybe before they worried about things like licensing! lol
