Replaced the Indian head with a lion head for its symbol. Reminded me of Saturday afternoons watching Marlin Perkins hanging out in the jeep while his buddy Jim fought lions, gorillas, elephants etc

Real life on film. None of this twisted, ratings-based, clickbait sensationalism.
Oh...and get off my lawn
Oh...and get off my lawn
Loved Wild Kingdom, always felt bad for Jim who was wrestling an anaconda while Marlin Perkins watched from a safe distance
Yeah we used to always make jokes about that as kids.... while Jim's wrestling the man eating crocodile I'll study the moss on the underside of this rock........
I thought someone already had a lion head?? Personally, I guess I don't see the Indian head as offensive but a tribute. Omaha was named after the Omaha Indian tribe at least in part if not in whole. What's next...... change Omaha's name??? Guess Carter lake would work
All I know is I love the "Washington Football Team" moniker and I hope they never get another mascot.
Johnny Carson used to have Jim Fowler on his show a lot. Johnny used to tell jokes about Marlin Perkins like "while Jim is wrestling a pack of rabid hyenas, I will be back here with the native girls drinking a pitcher of margaritas". Classic stuff. Once an animal kind of nipped at Johnny's hand. Jim said "Don't worry. We have Mutual of Omaha insurance." Johnny about fell over laughing.
Well ... what shall we call our State, then, since it's also an Indian word. I mean "Native American" word (even though their ancestors migrated here, too).
You f
you forgot Jim hanging on to a anaconda and going down in the water and marlin acts like it’s no big deal
It's kind of sad that we've come to the point where a company picked a logo honoring a Native American chief portraying strength and honor, then after decades has to change their logo to be politically correct.
I think it will have to be a vegetable name or a number and letters like Omaha would be 1 O or cabbage sounds good
