eldon Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Dunkin' Donut Coffee cups and Donut boxes brought to the office with their big f'n nyr logo. Not necessary for northern NJ. I think I'll boycott that chain until they're eliminated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDfan1711 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Must be a local thing, I guess. I get DD maybe once or twice a month and never pay particular attention to their branding, but I've really never seen anything but the corporate logos on it. The Bucs are pretty big down here for football and they never have anything like that on their products. Certainly not Lightning or Rays. Do they have some local partnership with them or something? Maybe just certain franchisees are like them? Still, I see your point, and I'd be pissed. Eat the doughnuts, then light the box on fire. Film it, Show us here. Then upload to Youtube.

I also experienced someone bringing a box into my northern NJ office this morning with that god awful logo. What if you're my boss and I just don't know? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'7' Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 (edited) DD is a huge company. Their marketing execs know Devils fans hate the Rangers and Devils fans drink Dunkin Donuts coffee. But they went forward with this anyway...probably because they thought we're such small fries that we just flat out don't matter right now. People get fierce about this. I remember being at a bar when an Eagles fan was poured a beer in a Giants glass...and he wouldn't drink it.

Satans Hockey Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 (edited) I don't drink coffee so it will be easy for me to boycott them lol I rarely get donuts but when I do I prefer to go to the locally owned stores.

NJDevs4978 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 It's stupid to have any team-themed cups at a chain anyway. I get advertising certain players and teams - Eli's been in enough Dunkin Donuts ads but at least they aren't putting him or the Giants logo on cups yet.

MadDog2020 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Last time I got Dunkin' coffee it came in a fvcking Rags cup... One of my co-workers picked it up for me so I drank it, but I'm requesting a non-Rags cup next time I go to a DD in person. I actually posted about it in the ATL thread.

EdgeControl Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I equate DD to bill bellicheck now, cause every time I see his smarmy face it's in front of hundreds of dd logos. Any way the two local ones near me serve watered down coffee so I don't go. Let's argue about Taylor ham and pork roll now !! ha ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Leeds Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) I agree with hating it. in 2014 when the Rags were in the Finals.......the nearest D-i-c-k's Sporting Goods (in Freehold) painted the huge glass entry way with all sorts of Go Rags garbage..........completely covered the expansive glass entryway. Needless to say, I raised a holy stink with the store manager. My main beef was that 2 years prior, not a friggin' peep or anything acknowledging the Devs in the Finals. Tot his day when I'm looking at merchandise, I always cover Rags gear with something from the Devs. I'm a grown man and I can't help myself LOL. I had to edit it because D-i-c-k's was changed to nose!! Edited March 24, 2017 by Jimmy Leeds 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to edit it because D-i-c-k's was changed to nose!! I remember being at a bar (not sure the loyalties of the owner) and they didn't even turn on game 4 of the 2012 finals until I asked. And yea the Devils were down 3-0...but still your local team in in the finals. Absolutely nothing else of importance was on. How is that not on every TV? And when I asked the bartender she looked confused...legitimately not informed. I don't know if this is something the Devils marketing dept (this was Lou era so what marketing right?) should be on top of, but it would be a good idea to make sure the Devils are always shown and well represented in the bar scene. Make sure they have merchandise hanging. Make sure in late January on a Tuesday that Panthers at Devils is on at the bars instead of Prairie Tumbleweed State vs. Central Wyoming Tech college basketball. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck the Duck Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Went to DD today to grab a box of munchkins. I brought along a Sharpie in case I had to make some alterations to the box (no way I was going to allow the perception that I support those d-bags from across the river). Thankfully, my DD didn't have anything Rags related in the store, so no creative drawings were necessary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevsMan84 Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Saw this and interesting about the outrage for this. All I will say to those who are outraged by this is the same thing I hear when I talk about knockoff jerseys; just deal with it. Also Devils have a sponsorship deal with Tim Horton's, who is DD's biggest competitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not like DD are a bunch of Rangers fans...there's money changing hands, if that money was exchanged the Devils, you'd get a Devils cup. But its not. i wouldn't want a Rangers cup either, but to suggest that DD somehow didn't consider the feelings of Devils fans is just plain stupid.

That's what a lot of fans are trying to angle it as. I am not pointing the finger at anyone here with this, but this was a huge deal for many in the FB groups last week as well as fans around me when I was at the game last week. I am not kidding, there was a girl standing near me during warmups who was telling her friend about it and saying she is never going to DD again and that she hates them forever.

Chuck the Duck Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I don't think anyone on here is outraged by it. Everyone here seems to understand its a sponsorship deal and nobody seems to be losing their minds over it. Doesn't mean I have to like my coffee coming in a cup with a Rags symbol on it. Can't speak for those on FB or people at the game though. However, I would agree with the girl and what others here have already said. If its pisses you off that much, make your displeasure known the only way you can - stop buying their products. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
