And initial and the oldest team name was Chicago Orphans but it was removed hastily. It all began with lots of victories won by the team at the beginning of last century. They expected a lot from Cubs, but things went ugly after they beat the World Series in 1908.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chicago cubs logo <strong>history started in 1903.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"cubs_logo_meaning_font\"><\/span>Cubs\u2019 logo meaning &amp; font<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1\">Initially, an old Chicago Cubs logo <a href=\"https:\/\/turbologo.com\/articles\/image-file-formats\/\">image<\/a> was looking like letter \u201cC\u201d <strong>written in gothic type<\/strong>. And \u201cC\u201d<strong> stood for Chicago of course<\/strong>. Tracing the letter was altered several times. Some options included notches, others didn\u2019t. Color was ranging from blue to dark gray. And finally Cubs logo developed a new style in 1908. A fulvous bear cub was shaped into \u201cC\u201d holding a baseball bat in its paws. Perhaps, it was this logo alteration that mystically affected fate of all the Cubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"chicago_cubs_logo_evolution\"><\/span>Chicago Cubs logo evolution<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084811\/chicago-cubs-logo-history.png\" alt=\"Chicago cubs logo history\" class=\"wp-image-1502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084811\/chicago-cubs-logo-history.png 1024w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084811\/chicago-cubs-logo-history-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084811\/chicago-cubs-logo-history-768x450.png 768w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 958px) 958px, 100vw\" data-full=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084811\/chicago-cubs-logo-history.png\" data-full-size=\"1024x600\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1\">Right after the event another rebranding was issued in 1946. The \u201cC\u201d letter returned, but there was no cub inside of it. There was UBS abbreviation. Thus, \u201cC\u201d letter began to symbolize not only Chicago but also a team name as well. Red, white and blue colors were taken from the flag this time. Cubs were experimenting with logo details and outlining many times, but they haven\u2019t changed their logo completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084811\/chicago-cubs-logo.png\" alt=\"Chicago cubs logo\" class=\"wp-image-1503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084811\/chicago-cubs-logo.png 1024w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084811\/chicago-cubs-logo-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084811\/chicago-cubs-logo-768x450.png 768w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 958px) 958px, 100vw\" data-full=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084811\/chicago-cubs-logo.png\" data-full-size=\"1024x600\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1\">However, all the outlinings with different colors, all the rebranding attempts were in vain until 2016. 1979 logo wasn\u2019t altered significantly. It was still outlined with thick blue line. Yet somehow the team managed to overcome its twisted fate. Billy Goat curse was lifted in fall 2016! Chicago Cubs won the World Series for the first time in 100 years! One team\u2019s most famous fan, Bill Murray was over the moon. As all the other fans were, who were crying in the stands. Sometimes it\u2019s not about logo or brand, it\u2019s simply about luck!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the_curse_and_its_impact_on_the_chicago_cubs_logo_evolution\"><\/span>The Curse and Its Impact on the Chicago Cubs Logo Evolution<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1\">A succession of failures is a common sight in sports. When it is hard to state direct reasons, people often tend to invent strange explanations. No other team has suffered such a long succession of failures after all. It took place in 40s when Chicago Cubs rejected another <a href=\"https:\/\/turbologo.com\">logo<\/a> variation. It was completely altered instead and a wrathful, enraged bear muzzle took place of a lovely bear cub encircled by \u201cC\u201d. It was rather unexpected and unusual for the team and fans didn\u2019t quite get the gist either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084810\/chicago-cubs-photo.png\" alt=\"Chicago cubs photo\" class=\"wp-image-1504\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084810\/chicago-cubs-photo.png 1024w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084810\/chicago-cubs-photo-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084810\/chicago-cubs-photo-768x450.png 768w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 958px) 958px, 100vw\" data-full=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084810\/chicago-cubs-photo.png\" data-full-size=\"1024x600\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1\">And it was just perfect timing for another story to happen. The team had a certain fan who absolutely loved goats. He firmly believed that goats bring luck. And his name was William Sianis. Once upon a time he and his goat, both having tickets, went to see the match. As the goat didn\u2019t have the most pleasant air around him, both were asked to leave the match. Sianis had grown mad because of this and cursed the team. He said that there will be no more winning for the team. And the curse came true!<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Serious people became interested in baseball in the end of XIX century.
