Plus, the logo could just be a square patty of goetta (pork mixed with oats and fried - it's yummy!) with eyes and holding a bat! The Y'alls would make sense because of the water tower.

Contest was supposed to end today and they are going to announce a name within the next two weeks. The Florence games are fun to go to. Hopefully a good name will be picked. Will share once they announce!
Thanks for the info... didn't know goetta was a dish.

I love going to minor league and independent league games... on vacation, my wife -- she loves baseball and is a great scorebook keeper -- and I always try to work in some local teams.

Would like to move to a town that has a minor league team, so I could attend their games... Asheville looks good and it's a very nice place to live.... and the Tourists have been there a long time.

Wouldn't want to move to a town and the team folds.
