Bowie Baysox to honor David Bowie

A local AA baseball team, the Orioles affiliate Bowie Baysox will honor David Bowie this Friday by changing the pronunciation of their name from “Boo-ee” (named after former Maryland Governor Oden Bowie) to “Boh-ee,” and wear David Bowie-themed jerseys which will later be auctioned for charity.

I’m curious how many different jerseys there will be. I’m considering going. Whoever thought up this promotion is brilliant!

Story:

That is very cool.

For some reason, I am picturing the players done up like the Baseball Furies gang from the movie the Warriors: http://imgc.allpostersimages.com/images/P-473-488-90/67/6722/TEUA100Z/posters/the-warriors-the-baseball-furies-1979.jpg

The scientific research buoy in the center of Madison’s Lake Mendota is named “David Buoy”

You mean Avril Lavigne was wrong all these years?
