[Mr. White Sox]

wow, that was the A's logo back in the day?
amusing.

What logo? The elephant? That really isn't back in the day, I thought they still used it sometimes. I know they used it through the nineties.

They still used it? Meh, shows you how much I follow(ed) the A's.

[Fenway]

They have had a few

The elephant goes back to the Philly A's days, when they and not the Fillies, ruled that town. Finley replaced the pachyderm with his mule in the 70's.

and, thus, we are now cursed.

[chisoxfan64]

Yes but we did let the elephant in.

[Bisco Stu]

I stand corrected. If it was the KC Mule, that'd be the 60's. Ironic that it was Chicago that denied him, since Finley lived here.
