I saw it for the first time in-person, at a Culvers in Wisconsin. Wasn't a fan of the new symbol before, like it even less now. Another potential issue, is the painted symbol does not match the posted sign. The designs aren't that far off, but I could potentially see someone getting confused/complaining.

Looking at it from a different angle, the latest version uses more paint, so it should take longer to wear away.

I actually like the new one, but I don't see how it really improves on the old one.

Sorry.  My bad for not reading the other posts more thoroughly before I posted that.

Oh hell, like I care. I've done that so many times. It's actually kind of a funny coincidence.
