![]() It’s a blurry picture, but here’s one set: linkĪnd here’s the other, albeit somewhat obscured by the scoreboard: link And, to be honest, I think it looks like a mess. ![]() The result: They have a bunch of banners with vastly different looks. They’ve gone with era-appropriate banners, and when they hang a banner, they stick with it. They’ve also won a few titles and have a fairly large set of retired numbers. The Admirals have been around for over 50 years and have had a number of different looks. Here in Milwaukee, we have the Admirals, a minor-league hockey team, and Wave, a longstanding arena soccer team, who play at the UWM Panther Arena, aka the old MECCA. So this is the rare one where I’m pretty sure I don’t agree with Paul and/or the original poster in that I think you have to look at it on a case-by-case basis and not have an across-the-board rule. I can imagine rare instances in which I team might need to deviate from these rules due to special circumstances (I wouldn’t expect or want the Guardians to maintain an old banner showing Chief Wahoo, for example, and I suppose moving to a new stadium or arena might sometimes require a different banner-display situation that could in turn require having new banners made), but they should at least try to at least stay true to the spirit of the rules. Or better yet, make two or three identical banners to begin with, so you can have some in reserve if needed and you’ll know they were produced to the same specs.) (If the banner gets old and ratty, just make a new one with the same design.
