Save the 76 Ball
Sign Now
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.

I collected the 76 ball when I was a kid, 30 years ago. Coca Cola tried to change the "taste" of Coke which was a "trademark", they lost a lot of money. You would think corporations would learn.

I recognize you want to give a common image to your 3 brands of stations, but it is not necessary to replace the balls in order to do that. They are SoCal icons and they actually make people more likely to buy gas from you whereas the new signs do not.

I have all ready quit using the 76 gas stations because of this. We had on here in Centralia Washington it sold for awhile then came back as a 76 ( with the flat sign) and now its a Texico. But I have quit using the gas cause of lack of respect to history

I have the greatest admiration for the person who started this pettion, and can't undestand why you would change such a graet american icon. on short I buy about 450.00 worth of gas from your stations monthly and plan to take my business elsewhere .
