Why is the world cup trophy so shitty looking? It's by far and away the biggest most important trophy in all of sport, but the main portion of it looks like it's made out of fucking papier-mâché. The globe at the top and the mantle at the bottom are okay but the rest of it looks terrible.

>OP in charge of having artistic sense

It's rough & crumbly clay-sculpture base creates interesting dialogue with the finished globe atop it.

unironically the best looking trophy in sports

That just sounds like "it looks like shit so it makes the non shitty parts look better". The whole thing should just not look like shit. The most prestigious title in the history of athletic competition should not be rough and crumbly.
>>
>>74477929
Tell you what, whatever argument you're trying to start about this trophy, you've won. It seems as you'll struggle to understand the language behind its design

It's iconic. At least it's not just a cup like every other trophy in sports.
>>

>>74477813

>>
>>74477813
compared to what other trophies?

>nba gold ball
shit
>commissioners trophy
too large, looks retarded desu
>stanley cup
actually serves a purpose for being large, one of the best
>lombardi trophy
it's silver, wtf why is it silver you won the superbowl, should be gold at least. same with the PL trophy and La Liga
>>
>>74478089
The PL trophy has a gold crown though. Also the Invincibles trophy has a gold body.
>>
>>74477813
still better than this abomination or any of those shitty gangsta rap style 1kg rings planted with bazillions of diamonds the US leagues distribute.

I just looked up the early 1900s trophy, this shit is fucking awesome. WHY DID THEY CHANGE IT?
>>
>>74478193
Because some monkey hue stole it and it's never been found
>>
>>74478193
Because Brazil won it three times

When you win it three times you get it forever
>>
>>74478193
It was stolen, then replaced. That one was tiny as fuck too
>>
>>74478160
I agree with you re the rings. Always thought it was nigger tier ugly shit

look at how many rings this guy won

a true hall of famer
>>
>>74478193
Brazil won it 3 times so they got to keep it and they designed a new one. Then it got stolen and lost forever because hues are subhuman, so now no country can ever keep the new World Cup forever (they get a gold-plated bronze replica instead).
>>
>>74478252
>every player that's ever won engraved on it
They're not engraved on the trophy, they're engraved on detachable rings (which are eventually replaced).

>>74478691
That was only true for the Jules Rimet trophy. Now the winning team gets a replica.
>>
>>74478753
holy shit

it was small af in the 80s
>>
>call it the world cup
>trophy has no cup

Soccerfags are incredidbly intelligent and original
>>
>>74478006
>the thing you get for winning the WORLD CUP is not a cup
why?

just call it the World Tropy then.
>>
>>74478791
I guess they'll handle it like the stanley cup. so the rings get detached and displayed in the HoF when they're replaced. think its every7 years for the stan lee
>>
>>74478843
>>74478855
The original World Cup trophy was a cup, they just didn't bother to rename the tournament after redesigning the trophy.

When Brazil won it, yes

People saying they changed it because it was stolen are just talking out of their asses, it was stolen after the current WC already existed

IIRC the current trophie was meant to be permanent and no one gets it, but if you see the base of it they are about to run out of space
