They've settled details for the human flag, decided on pony rides at a riverfront fair, and come to a fragile agreement on a name. But now planners of a bicentennial celebration in Allston-Brighton next year have hit another obstacle, this time over the image of a bull some want to include in the official logo.Opposition comes from some who argue the word "bull" is "often followed by a vulgarity," as in "bullbleep." Others object because Brighton was once a major cattle-slaughering center and acquired a reputation for smelling like shit.
Among alternative symbols - alternative to the bull - discussed for the logo was a picture of the Allston-Brighton toll booth on I90.
