I can’t unsee this now. Recently, NBC’s logo for Super Bowl 56 went viral . . . but not necessarily for a good reason.
The logo has the Roman numerals LVI with palm trees in them . . . because the game is taking place at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. But in the logo, the trees are RED . . . and it looks like there’s BLOOD dripping down the letters.
When I first saw the logo animated on TV, I didn’t see blood. But now I can’t unsee this.
As you can imagine, Twitter had a heyday with jokes. One person called it “CSI: Super Bowl”. Another said it looks more like a promo for “Dexter”. Someone else said it looks like TOM BRADY’s bloody lip from Sunday’s playoff game.
I know those are supposed to be trees, but it looks as if the Super Bowl LVI logo was involved in something grisly. pic.twitter.com/1vL4etZ227
