This will date me, but the top right gives off Ms. Kitty's vibes. Tried to search online for the logo but couldn't find it.

I think I remember those 99 cent pitchers at Strombolis.

Time to vote. All the designs are on gold t-shirts, except one.

It's early but so far the one with the stadium image is leading by far (at least on X). The "Miss Kitty's" version, now on a gold shirt, is losing. I kind of liked that one, so it shows I'm out of touch with the people.

On instagram and Facebook currently, the one with the horses is leading. Way more votes on IG and FB, so that's probably a better place to look for a winner.

I knew this would happen when I saw the horse design. The fans are going to go with the same basic t-shirt again.

It's interesting MSU would even use a similar design to last year. The rodeo runout is great, but the same shirt 2 years in a row?

I'm also surprised that this shirt even made it to the final 4 designs - it's awesome but so similar to last year's shirt that I doubt many people who bought the 2023 shirt will buy this one too. I know I won't, especially as I generally only wear the Gold Rush shirts once a year so the old ones I have are still basically new!

I didn't even pay attention to the fact neither design actually depicts the flags the rodeo team uses. They use Bobcats spelled out in full. Nitpicking, I know.

Ones with mountains are automatically getting my votes, mountains are the best, stadium one pretty cool though

The stadium one on Facebook isn't that far behind though

I've seen them use 'CATS' at least once when they didn't have enough riders, but it certainly doesn't happen often.

And the football field doesn’t go all the way to the mountains. I think the artist can have a little bit of freedom in their design.

Definitely get to take some license but I gotta agree with the M on the wrong side. Everything that ever shows that it is on the right side. And the mountains used are there just a mirror image left and right so not like it couldn’t go on the proper side. Just a silly mistake that is glaringly obvious.

The goal post on the far end of the stadium shirt is in the middle of the end zone.

Man, some online store has already stolen the designs and knocking them off onto their own products.

I don't know how this works, but I think it's all bots. If you follow high school sports in MT, you might see a post on social media from a tiny school, and there will be a bot post saying they have apparel for sale. I do know they aren't paying any licensing royalties, or even asking if licensing is required for the use of the logo. I don't know for a fact that this is what's happening here, but I'd bet money it is. I don't know how these accounts don't get completely shut down. That design might not be trademarked, but MSU's logo is...maybe they just know exactly what they can get away with.
