Mike - According to the team's wsebsite, they are playing in the Big Easy and proudly proclaim themselves as the first team back home after Katrina.

So instead of the player's names on the backs of the uniforms, do they have the name of the element whose atomic number matches the player's number (Hydrogen, #1, Helium, #2, Lithium, #3, etc.)Las Vegas 51's 1460-KENO-Las Vegas NV/870-KLSQ-Whitney NV (a)49ers, 76ers, 67s (Ottawa), I get. But why 51s? Did Nevada achieve statehood in 1851, or is there some other reason? Gotta love those minor league team names!New Orleans Zephyrs 690-WIST-New Orleans LAIs this team actually playing in New Orleans? Or have they temporarily re-located post-Katrina, like the Saints and Hornets? 73 Mike Brooker Toronto, ON _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://arizona.hard-core-dx.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx |
