I went on a super, super deep dork dive last night on the Buffalo Bills where I actually went and then tracked down the illustrator of the charging buffalo on the side of the helmet.
He was a former aerospace illustrator named Stevens Wright, Stevens plural.
He created that because his wife worked for NFL franchises and NFL Network.
And then he went on because of the success of Buffalo Bills.
to create two of the absolute worst logos.
One would be the San Francisco 49ers quote one day logo that lasted six days and they hated it so much because it kind of looked like a bad gas station sign.
And then the one after that that he created was actually a prototype of the Flying Elvis.
It was in 1979 and they released it to the fans in Foxborough.
They hated it so much that they boot it out of existence.
That was kind of weird.
You're forgetting Grimlock, though.
Like a flying Tyrannosaurus Rex.
But that's the correct answer.
Okay, maybe there are two rules, but the one that is 100% that I insist on completely, Jagermeister, must be drank ice cold.
Or don't drink it at all.
And let me remind people, Tony's Top 5 is presented by Smirnoff, the official vodka sponsor of the National Football League.
Smirnoff.
Please drink responsibly.
