^ it's funny how much a 'cutting edge" logo can get people to buy branded merchandise and how a cheesy logo can make it 'uncool' in a second. Redbull is probably the best example of this in motorsports. It's probably the only beverage brand I think of where people would buy a hat or t-shirt to get the logo. Nearly all other drinks companies could never pull this off.

I've lost count of all of the cars and people with Monster Energy logos on them. Why would anyone advertise they consume a particular drink is lost on me.
