Upcoming Advertising Jersey Patch

[Original_JB]

Whose logo you prefer to see. Yes, I'm aware that the overwhelming answer is "no patch", but since $$$ is king, we all know that's not an option unless someone like a Tom Hanks decides to pay for a 'blank' patch to try and rein in the changes to the game.

How about promoting something a little more edgy?  
Sex World is near Target Field.  Or one of the iconic bars: CC Club, First Avenue, Gay 90s, The Dakota.   Or alternate each of the Jucey Lucy places - half of the jerseys with Matt’s Bar, the other with the 5-8 Club.

The 90’s would be perfection.

Promoting? The entities pay to have the square there, not the other way around. I doubt Sex World is going to come up with $10M+/yr to put their name on the jerseys. (and don't they still do the free entry with a ticket stub from the game or did that go away with the physical paper "stubs"?

Anything but UHG, please.

Hormel would be great but then they'd need to bring them back as the team hot dog. Which they should do anyways.

[Vanimal46]

I want a Joe Mauer/Kemps collaboration like the good old days. 

[Vanimal46]

Or a Kris Lindahl arms stretching out across the entirety of the jersey.

If the words to the Hornet row of fame song apeear on the Jumbotron,  everyone must sing loudly and proudly.  You will be a wiener winner!!!

Back in the day, AWA All-Star Wrestling was sponsored in part by Polka Records.   The Twins should bring back this tradition.  Reunite Whoopie John.

Hormel... but only if the logo is a can of Spam. Would be so appropriate for this team 😂

So...... I believe the FO stated that they were 'rounding third' in regards to figuring out who would be their jersey advertising sponsor of choice.  Do you think that that jersey ad will be making it's first appearance on this year's MLB  Playoffs Jersey or will they wait until next year? I'd think whoever the sponsor is going to be would be willing to spend a bit more to get the heightened visibility that a sure playoff team would get right out of the gate, especially if their patch is on the jerseys sold at retail.

The obvious choice is Target because their logo is cool and super-minimal.

And they already ponied up for naming rights of the field

Yep. Their logo is the reason the Loons' kit isn't insufferable and terrible.

So will Target decide to spend even more for a patch when they already spend plenty for the naming rights? Is that a cost-effective PR expenditure?

Dear god, MLS jersey sponsor logos are way too large. Target is probably one of the least objectionable since the logo is so minimalist, but it's still far too much.

Oh, I completely agree, I'm only pointing out that Target's logo is one of the only sponsor designs that isn't eye-bleeding terrible.

[strumdatjag]

How about My Pillow, just for the fun of seeing some here get apoplectic!!!! 

[Sjoski]

I'm for the clean 3M logo.....  we all know what it's for...but could also stand for Minnesota, Minneapolis, Mississippi.

And here we are, into the season, with no patch. Wonder what the hold up has been, especially with the dire need for payroll cash. I'd hate to think they were going to go with Bally's or something ridiculous like that, but who knows. Why else the delay? Perhaps we'll find out when they release the City Connect Jerseys on June 14th.

Nobody wants to be associated with "right sizing?"

If I'm a hitter, I'm not sure I want this on my front shoulder.
