Before Uncle Dave revealed the name of the team he was asked in a Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce meeting (at least if I remember correctly it was a SL Chamber of Commerce meeting) what the name of the team was going to be.
He threw out 4 names:
Salt Lake Glory
Salt Lake Highlanders
Salt Lake Alliance
Real Salt Lake
Of course everyone went bonkers on BigSoccer.
Nobody, and I mean nobody, liked Real Salt Lake. But everyone loved Salt Lake Highlanders.
Well, the rest is history, but it looks like a fan went as far as to come up with a logo for the Highlanders.
