Grizzlies New Uniform

The Memphis Grizzlies get a new uniform inspired by Memphis:

'The base color of the uniform is Beale Street Blue , and the neon shimmer look was chosen by the design team to mirror the signs on Beale Street that give off the same vibrant glow. The intense shapes used on the uniform, including the Grizzlies’ Gold inlays, are inspired by the Grizzlies logo itself and the Egyptians from which the city’s name is derived.'

To design an image with ties to Memphis seems to me that the first step would be to change the name from Grizzlies.

Jackpot Enterprises

A tombstone for an IPO appeared in the Wall Street Journal on October 19, 1987. The new listing was Jackpot Enterprises, a 'gaming machine route operator.' Jackpot's stock symbol was 'J'. That was the symbol of Standard Oil of New Jersey. The stock gods were angered. The DJIA closed down almost 23% from the close of the prior trading session.
