After unveiling their new logos and colors on Monday, the Los Angeles Rams and a local ABC affiliate held a virtual telethon to help raise money for the United Way’s coronavirus relief fund and food bank. Rams COO Kevin Demoff said before the telethon began that if more than $2 million was raised, he would read mean tweets about the team’s new logo.
Thanks to all of those who donated to the great cause, Demoff will stick to his word and now has to read some of the harshest comments about the polarizing logo.
Demoff also tweeted that while he doesn’t have the final total on the money raised by the telethon, but he thanked everyone who called in and donated to the United Way to help those affected by the pandemic.
Based on the reactions to the logo, it shouldn’t be very hard for Demoff to find mean tweets to read. Just about every Rams fan on Twitter had something to say about it, most of which were negative and critical.
Many fans would rather see the team change the logo, but this will have to do for now.
