Lions For Show

This spring FC Zenit asked their fans to offer their vision of the team’s official talisman.

A lion has historically been the team’s good luck charm. This time the fans we’re given the chance to decide how the lion looks. This task isn’t easy, keeping in mind that a real talisman is not just a fan emblem, a picture in the Internet, or a club’s printed material. It’s also a man-sized mascot which will take part in the majority of events organized by Zenit.
 
Unfortunately, the one and only lion destined to be Zenit’s talisman is still missing, despite the fact that club was almost flooded with e-mails, a couple of mailed parcels, and first-class letters with drawings, all of which we looked through thoroughly. We have created a gallery of entries sent by Zenit fans.
