One of the more unusual logos of a minor league baseball team is that of the Las Vegas 51s of the Pacific Coast League. Formerly known as the Las Vegas Stars, the franchise was renamed in 2001 after the Area 51 military base located north of Vegas that is rumored to house alien corpses and technology. At the time of the name change, the 51s were a AAA affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers, and began wearing Dodger blue caps with their grey alien head logo on them. The caps were heavily criticized by other PCL teams and fans, but has been one of the highest selling caps in the minor leagues. Today, they are affiliated with the Toronto Blue Jays.
