Why Is The Alligator The Lowell Spinners’ Mascot?

The Lowell Spinners, a baseball team based in Lowell, Massachusetts, have unveiled new logos that emphasize their place within the fabric of the city. The team’s full name is included below the hulking, yarn-covered reptile, whose moniker is a reference to the city’s extensive network of canals. The alligator, named Canaligator, was born in the canals of Lowell and is now the center stage in the new identity.

The Spinners did not play during 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The team’s mascot, named Canaligator, takes center stage in the new identity. The team’s outfield has transformed into an ice skating rink, and on Sunday, Canaligator, the Spinners’ mascot who was born in the city’s canals, took center stage in the new identity.

The Lowell Spinners’ two mascots, Canaligator and Allie-Gator, will soon be walking down the aisle at their games. The name Spinners may even refer to their alligator mascot, as when an alligator makes its death roll, it also spins around. The new logos better reflect exactly who the team is, as they were a baseball team based in Lowell, Massachusetts. The team’s mascots, Canaligator, Allie-Gator, and Millie-Gator, were expected to entertain fans and cheering crowds.
