Like I see it, but also it's pretty obvious that it's not an intentional thing.

And it’s really ugly as well

Sad how hard peeps look at pretty much everything these days hoping they'll find some thing they can spin as offensive.

If somebody was going to bitch about this, why wait until now? Logo has been in use since 2012.

Wow, you REALLY have to squint to pull a swastika out of that logo.

Looking at the side of the hat the "SD" logo has the same design. Not sure what the problem is.

No this logo is new for these season, there was a rebrand in the off season and these were the spring training hats, and it sounds like they put the logo on some of the field equipment also...

it's the merge of the logo/letters that have created this 'symbol' When the two images are apart it's fine...

the Padres thing is ridiculous, pretty big stretch in my opinion to get to a swastika, did lead me to finding this website though

This.
It’s the same SD as the old design that’s forming the swastika shape (which is still a stretch).

I hope these people that are doing all the complaining never visit northern Ontario. They are going to shit themselves when they see

You could get to the front of the line with a few well timed coughs or sneezes though......

Lol
At least when I use the GO train I get the seat all to myself
And I no longer have to be a good guy and offer my cart when the one they are pulling is stuck.
Funny how they can’t differentiate that I’m not from Wuhan ( never even been to Asia)and I’m more of a burger poutine guy :)

OH NO!!! After Americans viewed Canada from above, then notice that clearly Jay Leno's side profile in the Hudson's Bay area... Canada will most definitely have to re-terraform this area to keep fans happy!!
