We, the undersigned, as consumers with an abiding fondness for the striking, historic and uniquely Californian blue and orange ball-shaped Union 76 logo, be it on tall metal poles or car antennae (since 1967), hereby call on ConocoPhillips to reconsider their alteration of the 115-year-old brand, to cease replacing spherical blue and orange 76 balls at gas stations with flattened blue and red disks, and to restore the beloved spheres to the poles where they belong.





If ConocoPhillips does not demonstrate greater respect for the the history and goodwill associated with the blue and orange 76 ball, we will be taking our business to other gas sellers. This petition is being launched on January 31, six days after ConocoPhillips posted fourth quarterly earnings of $3.7 Billion, and we call for a sincere response to our concerns before the announcement of their next second quarterly earnings.

    • Good design belongs to the people. It is presumptuous and inappropriate for a corporation to arbitrarily toss out a strong, historic logo in favor of such a poor substitute.

    • Please save the Blue and orange ball signs. If you dump that icon, you will, for one, display stupidity, and secondly, you might as well call the place something else beside 76. It's like Mcdonalds dumping the arches. Just wrong!!
