Meaning and History logo

Mississippi RiverKings Logo history

Fans usually associate the RiverKings with their turtle logo. The team used it for four seasons when they were the Memphis RiverKings and for eight seasons as the Mississippi RiverKings.
The first Mississippi RiverKings logo was unveiled in 2007 when the team changed its name. It was based on the Memphis RiverKings signature mark. The logo depicted the same green turtle with a hockey stick and a beige crown on its head. The only difference was that the turtle appeared in the new logo with teeth due to which it looked fiercer. The “M” in the crown referred to Mississippi.
The inclined wordmark in beige below the turtle featured the team name. The “Mississippi” was in uppercase letters of small size, while the letters in the “RiverKings” were much larger.

The 2015 Symbol
