And if you want to see it, all you have to do is look in the sky on Friday night.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time since the team debuted in 1997, the team uniforms and related merchandise are getting a major overhaul. (Though the colors have changed since then, the official logo has remained mostly the same.)<\/p>\n<p>The change was announced on Nov. 24.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe new branding represents the Mercury\u2019s championship legacy, devoted fanbase and the new era that began with a record-breaking season and memorable Finals run,\u201d Phoenix Mercury and Phoenix Suns Chief Executive Officer Josh Bartelstein said in the announcement. \u201cWhile our logos have been reimagined, the Mercury\u2019s identity remains the same \u2013 our organization\u2019s commitment to the community and the grit and joy of our team will continue to define Mercury basketball.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<strong><strong>We\u2019re thankful for you. Are you thankful for us?<\/strong><\/strong>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p class=\"fundraising-thermometer-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWe feel thankful for our staff and for the privilege of fulfilling our mission to be an unparalleled source of information and insight in Phoenix. We\u2019re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to this community.<br \/>Help us continue giving back to Phoenix.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>On Friday night, Nov. 28, the team will celebrate the rebrand with a drone show. Starting at 7:30 p.m., look to the eastern base of Camelback Mountain near Camelback Road and 64th Street. The team reports the show will be visible from downtown Scottsdale to Arcadia and all the way up to Scottsdale Fashion Square. <\/p>\n<p>According to the press release, the new primary logo is an evolution of the iconic Mercury \u201cM,\u201d positioned at an angle of 19.97 degrees, a reference to the Mercury\u2019s inaugural season. The crescent shape echoes the shadowed side of planet Mercury and introduces a prominent splash of purple. The sharp right corner of the \u201cM\u201d serves as a nod to the original geometric rings, symbolizing an arrow to the future and forward momentum of the franchise.<\/p>\n<p>The global logo features the primary emblem at the center, with four rings positioned behind it, mirroring the planetary rings on the team\u2019s original design. The \u201cM\u201d divides the four rings into eight individual lines that symbolize the Mercury\u2019s status as one of the eight original WNBA franchises.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the drone show, the team will celebrate the rebrand with a Merc Merch Swap through Friday, Dec. 5, at the Team Shop at Mortgage Matchup Center. Fans can exchange any Mercury, WNBA or WNBA team merchandise for a new T-shirt with the updated logo. Apparel collected will be donated to Goodwill, a partner of the Phoenix Mercury. Fans who participate in the merchandise swap will also receive a voucher for 20% off a new Mercury item.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Phoenix Mercury recently unveiled their new logo.
