Alewife Arsonists

The Alewife Arsonists are a Golly team from the Alewife Metro Station in the Alewife district of Cambridge, a neighborhood of Boston, Massachussetts. Unsurprisingly, tthe Alewife Arsonists are big fans of setting things on fire in any way possible - be it a classic Molotov Cocktail or a flamethrower attached to a drone. In Season 14 the Alewife Arsonists were shocked to discover just a few hours before the season began that their cross-town rivals from back in their elementary school days, the Boylston Boogers, were joining the Golly league, replacing the Atlanta Glitter Sharks.

Logo and Artwork

Minimalist Logo

The Alewife Arsonists announced a rebranding at the conclusion of Season 24, the last season of the Hellmouth Cup, and came out with a new minimalist Alewife Arsonists logo:

The Alewife Arsonists did not publicly announce their rebranding campaign. The Arsonists released their logo during a press conference following the Season 24 League Championship Series, which their cross-town rivals the Boylston Boogers won over the Albuquerque Solarpunks. The press conference was simultaneously happening with a Boylston Boogers press conference, also in Boston, across town, where the Boogers were also releasing new logos in preparation The logos were released simultaneously.

The Boylston Boogers logo that was released appears remarkably similar:

Lawsuits are ongoing, but lawyers for the Alewife Arsonists insist the branding similarities are purely a coincidence, and insists the scheduling of the press conference when the new logos were released was also purely coincidentally during the Boogers' press conference.
