Oh gods, the font.
Have you seen the numbering of the finish of the running lanes? looks like someone was sent out with a roll of gaffer tape just as the bloke at the other end said "On your marks...Get set....
And don't even ask about the "mascots". I'm not going to post an image, I'm not even going to post a link. It's all too depressing. Exactly. It's so much worse with single letters or numbers, since there's no context. They look haphazard and crooked, like the signmaker was three sheets gone before picking up a brush.
Olympic mascots have always been a strange breed, almost universally creepy. I don't know if I've even seen the mascots, now I'll have to go look for them.
