Wacky minor league promotions! We keep a “___ DAYS SINCE LAST WACKY MINOR LEAGUE PROMOTION” calendar here at the SB Nation offices, and no one has ever bothered to flip it over. This one is for a Star Wars day, which ... has been done. Over and over and over again. How does a team make it different?
Baseball players to play with giant Darth Maul face on their chests
Live long and prosper, minor league teams.
Here are our #StarWars jerseys for 8/2. To paraphrase Crocodile Dundee... @RiverCats @DurhamBulls @TimberRattlers pic.twitter.com/JCSh1kBgeb
— Brooklyn Cyclones (@BKCyclones) April 24, 2014 They make it different by a) putting a giant Darth Maul face on the jersey, b) busting out a hilarious, current Crocodile Dundee reference, and c) shaming the other teams that have had a Star Wars-themed jersey, complete with Twitter trolling. Well played. There's no way the other teams could respond to that kind of burn, and ...
What movie is that from, @BKCyclones? We don't recognize it from any of the *real* 'Star Wars' movies. @RiverCats @DurhamBulls

That shirt just makes me mad.
The only thing George Lucas got right in the first movie, and he doesn’t make it to the second movie.
You suck, Cyclones.
