Helmet Stickers / Buckeye Leaves (all merged)

why is everyone so intent on looking at pictures? when the light is not perfect dark green looks black. two people on this thread (I am one of them) have spoken to players who own authentic game worn helmets that they say have dark green buckeyes on them. that's the end of the argument as far as I'm concerned. you guys have fun with your color meters.

And you also have a former player who says they are black......

Here's a simple solution, since Mili hangs out with Terna all of the time, why doesn't Scott just bring his helmet with him one night to show Mili, that way this whole asinine discussion would end.

Um, I did that a long time ago when this discussion was "born". This is what Mili said after showing him a Buckeye Leaf from my helmet, "yeah the one you have is BLACK!"

Until someone SHOWS me (not tell me) othewise, I'm still saying they're BLACK.

You're right pictures are not the best source, hence Mili is waiting till I get him up close to a helmet in the locker room next season. But I'll be able to inspect one before that. Mine are BLACK and always have been. If your player buddies say they're dark green, I'll have to see it for myself first b/c that would be another "uniform" change that has been made and undetected. Until then, THEY'RE BLACK!

what color is this?

10004111po.jpg


taken 3 minutes ago from my car, bought last year at the texas game.

One of the "cheapo" green ones. Also, notice that it is a "REVERSE NEGATIVE" of the REAL AUTHENTIC BLACK ONES! I was waiting for someone like you to post that "piece of crap" for that very reason! (As seen in my game helmet below and a game helmet from Coach Tressel's webpage).

hayn you better let Hawk know, apparently he was wearing the 'fake' ones during the fiesta bowl... with the longer lower leaf on the right (see the attachment)

or maybe the style has changed, just like the orientation, since the two pics in your last post. I don't think they are bright green like the one on your steering wheel, but the change in orientation makes me wonder if the color changed too.

They have reversed them back and forth a few times I've noticed that too! I actually noticed when they started selling the REAL BLACK ones compared to the "cheapo green" ones. At one time all you could get was the "cheapo green" ones in the stores. So, I wanted to see how they were different. The Black ones in the store were a REVERSE of the ones on our helmets!Regardless the one on Hawk's helmet are NOT GREEN like the "CHEAPO GREEN" ones as posted by BuckeyNation27. The one he posted is DEFINITELY NOT the ones that go on the helmets. I AM POSITIVE OF THAT! He posted a GREEN one no doubt, but it is one of the "cheapos" that were first made available to the public a long time ago.
