NEW KFC LOGO TO BE SEEN FROM SPACE

Today (Tuesday 14 November) KFC will become the only brand visible from space. In a World first the company will unveil a giant logo made from lighted tiles in the Nevada desert, to launch its new-look Colonel logo.
The cosmic Colonel Sanders logo is located in the “UFO Capital of the World,” on The World’s only Extraterrestrial Highway. Area 51 is considered top-secret and the epicentre of inter-galactic communication.
Measuring a record-breaking 7,990 meter square KFC will unveil the new face for Colonel Sanders to mark the official debut of a massive re-image campaign that will update 14,000-plus restaurants globally, including 600 in Australia over the next five years.

...can we just make that logo a little big bigger, so the client can see it from his Virgin Galactic flight.

They are obviously targeting astronauts. I guess their chicken nuggets are kind of like dehydrated space food, so it makes sense.

Are there any awards for curing cancer? I'd love to have a go if there is, particularly if it's an adfest or London International.

yes, it does.

But if it had been a nike logo or the adidas three stripes or a big miller lite bottle, we would have said it was genius.

If you can view the logo on Google Earth, does that make it multimedia?

With google earth these days you can pretty much see any logo from space.


But, having said that, a big fuck-off KFC logo should deter aliens from invading any time soon.

It reminds me of Pepsi in 1985 spending a shitload of money seeing if laser projections couldn't turn the moon into a giant Pepsi logo (no shit). In the end they put it in the 'too hard basket'.

Makes sense to me. You can see half their loyal customers from space too.

Given the urban myths that KFC is made out of genetically modified chickens and who knows what other kind of alien ingredients nowadays on top of their secret recipe, perhaps that all along they have been in preparation to open up the brand to new markets - such as martians!

The good news though, is that if martians end up liking KFC they may not want to eat our children instead.

Good to see that KFC is still being considerate of the community

Is it going to pick up? Probably not.
Hey, at least it's better than all the other crap in space.
Well done team. I like it.
As for all the nay sayers on this blog go back to your brochures.
wink!
