maroon has a more reddish tint, while burgandy is a deeper, leaning towards purple color. JIll and Brenton, YOU'RE BOTH WRONG.

[edit] Bugs Bunny & "maroon"

The following sentence was added at the very top of the "Uses" section:

For clarification purposes, the term "maroon" as used by Bugs Bunny was not referring to the color maroon, but rather, was Bugs pronunciation of the word "moron."

This sentence did not seem to merit such a prominent placement, so I deleted it. Alki 22:07, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
