A very heavy, compact sans with a slightly squarish, geometric build and tight interior counters. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation, with rounded joins and subtly flared terminals that keep the forms from feeling purely mechanical. Curves (C, G, O, S) are broad and even, while straight-sided letters (E, F, H, N) read as dense blocks with small apertures. The lowercase is sturdy and wide with a single-storey a and g, a short-armed r, and a squat, functional t; numerals are bold and simplified, with a rounded 8 and a compact 0.
Well suited to large-format headlines, poster titles, sports or event graphics, and bold brand marks where immediate presence matters. It can also work for short packaging callouts or signage, particularly when set with generous tracking and line spacing to keep counters from closing up.
The overall tone is loud and assertive, with a cheerful, game-day energy. Its chunky silhouettes and controlled contrast give it a retro display feel—confident and attention-grabbing without becoming decorative.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact in display settings by combining a compact, geometric sans structure with noticeable stroke modulation and softened terminals. The result balances strong legibility at large sizes with a distinctive, retro-leaning voice.
Spacing appears intentionally tight in text, creating a solid “wall” of black that favors impact over airiness. The small counters and narrow openings suggest it will look best when given enough size and breathing room, especially in longer words or dense lines.
