Two words... ANGRY BIRDS!  Check out the new logo for the New Orleans Hornets Pelicans!

The teams website points out a few things on the logo...

  • The lettering in the logo was inspired by street signs in the French Quarter.
  • The team will retain the Fleur-de-lis in the main logo and alternate logos.
  • The blue in the logo represents the state of Louisiana.
  • The gold represents the glittery nature of the city of New Orleans.
  • And the red... well, they chose the red color because it's scary!!

Here are some alternate logos.
