This is the logo that was on my FIRST 'BAMA hat! The hat had a mesh back as well. It was a 1981 classic! #priceless

Love the Circle A. We started using that when Saban arrived.
The one I totally abhor is the 1st one and angry cartoon elephant over the block 'Alabama' . Why? Because that was used during the Dubose error. We should go out to the desert and bury that logo.

The best two are the elephant going through the A and the university seal.

We should just go ahead and put the BCS trophy in our logo...

Or we could slap a script A on it and make the BCS trophy our logo. Own it.

The elephant stepping through the A is by far the best we've ever had - the one used in the late 70s/80s/early 90s. Just a classic look.
I love the Bryant script A that we use now, but I hate the "circle" seal as a primary logo.
The number one rule with logos in advertising, or anything else, is that less is more. Having a circle with a letter in the middle and words all around it is cluttered and hard to replicate. I'd love it if we could just use the script A by itself as the primary logo (similar to the way our midcourt logo looks at Coleman.) I'm OK with the seal as a secondary look, but hate it as a primary look.
The script A or the block A with elephant/Crimson Tide script at bottom are the best.

Had a white cap with the seal logo on it in college... Can't find one anywhere now!

Bingo. Our seal has a classic, elegant look to it.
My third favorite is the elephant running that has "BAMA" on its side.

I don't think this was ever an official one, but I like it.

I think it was an official alternate and I love it.

I could never truly pick a favorite so I just tattooed all three on me.
Getting the script A next.

2nd and 3rd are my all time favs...
the CRAP they have on our license plates in Alabama now are my all time WORST. Horrific, and embarrassing. Designed by 2nd grade photoshop students from *U, they look like. Heck, Georgia, Mississippi, and even Tennessee's Alabama license plates have better logos than we do (esp. Georgia) for Alabama fans. SMH...don't know who comes up with these, but I've never seen one done more poorly anywhere.
