JMU's new basketball court, 200% more sassy

That's a bulldog wearing a crown. And inviting you to join his party.

James Madison University unveiled its new basketball court on Saturday in a press release. The school had used its Facebook page to solicit ideas for the new floor. Some of those ideas were really amazing. In the end, JMU decided to go with the sassy cartoon bulldog in a crown, as though it was Spike from Looney Tunes, but was hosting a show for Sassy Magazine.

Everyone knows that is their logo. I think the commentary is on the horrible design choice. Trying too hard.

JMU got what they wanted with this choice. EVERYONE is talking about it, although most of the talk is ridicule. Luckily it's football season.
