But who has the most recognizable logo in high school....SPORTS....Not just football?
I'll give you a minute to think.
Ding ding ding, we have a winner Johnny.
The Massillon Washington Tigers have the most recognizable logo....NATIONWIDE....not just in Ohio.
For the last year we here at THE Chiefy Jones Football Forum have been doing our research. First it started just in Ohio, we hit towns from Xenia to Middletown....From Youngstown to Dayton, from Marietta to Toledo and it was no contest. We then thought, "hey, this is such a runaway, let's go nationwide." It was off, from Mississippi to Nevada, from Miami to Oregon, from sunny Southern California to beautiful Maine....The results did not differ in runaway fashion, the most recognize logo in all of HS sports was Massillons Obie the Tiger.
Thanks for all your patience, thanks to the people on this site who funded our little project and most of all thank you to THE Massillon Washington High School Tigers...
Can we have a picture of this logo?
I'd say your school might be the first that comes to mind when speaking about high school football in general, but not any sort of logo per se.
When thinking of Massillon I think of the Stadium and the picture of Paul Brown on the scoreboard, but not any particular logo.
Not even a uniform since any time I've seen them play they always where something different.
Not winning a title in 40 years certainly doesn't put them in the minds eye of today's youth. It's a program and a story for the over 40 set if not the over 60 set.
Other sports programs are possibly more recognizable to the youth of today.
First that comes to mind for me would be SVSM and basketball because of LeBron.
But then again that was a long time ago now too.
