Is MSU on the verge of its first online riot? The once famed riot school, known for its rowdy celebrations during basketball season, is at it again. Only this time, they are taking it online. Why? It has to do with a new spartan logo that was posted at the US Patent Office. This logo found by an "anonymous" fan that was trolling the MSU Patents. They then posted the logo on a unofficial MSU fan forum site.
The disapproval for change was so overwhelming, the University has since released an official statement. Now Spartan fans are uniting, with a facebook account called "Just Don't" mocking the possibility that Nike had a major hand in this new logo change, simply to sell more merchandise. In less then 24 hours, the facebook site has over 5,000 users on it.
I remain neutral on this matter, and to-date, still don't own a Facebook account!
[EDIT: The new logo has been canned, thanks to the social uproar and mass emails folks sent out. Amazing.]
