In reply to the discussion: What's the bestest color of all? [View all]jmowreader
(50,557 posts)34. I knew someone who'd say PMS 289 is the WORSTEST color of all
PMS 289 is also known as "Duke Blue" - the color of Duke University. The person in question worked for Duke and designed a fundraising campaign brochure for the Iron Dukes, which is their booster club. She made lots of little boxes in the brochure and filled them with 10-percent tints of 289. Unfortunately, 10-percent 289 looks enough like UNC Blue that the donors complained.
