‘Season is ruined’: AFL fans mock accidentally X-rated Toyota logo

The AFL season has kicked off with a bang but fans have been left laughing at one of the most prominent features in every game.

Fans have ridiculed the AFL’s biggest sponsor, claiming its ad near the centre circle resembles female reproductive organs.

The ad in question is on the centre wing and features a silhouette of a captain and coach lifting the premiership trophy.

But while the iconic image is almost instantly recognisable to most footy fans, some saw the textbook image of a uterus in the greyed out silhouette.

The logo has been seen at every ground this weekend and has seen plenty of comments as fans all rushed to the same joke.

Is there a rough sketch of a uterus and fallopian tubes on the pitch? Very progressive of the afl 👏 pic.twitter.com/eW9OPlfZTI

My wife has pointed out that the AFL Toyota logo looks like a uterus. My season is ruined and the Bombers haven’t even played.

Wife commented earlier that the #Afl logo of the premiership cup being held aloft on the stadium turf this year looks like female reproductive organs. #Uterus

The AFL season has got off to a rollicking start, bringing 291,959 fans through the turnstiles — leaving the opening round of the 2023 season 108,442 short of the all-time record with three matches attendances still to roll in from the Sunday matches.

That record was set back in round one of 2017 at 400,401.

The MCG tweeted on Friday night the 8.10 (58) to 8.10 (58) draw between the Tigers and Blues was the “second biggest crowd for a Round 1 match between Richmond and Carlton ever.”
