I know the Mets and Las Vegas are breaking up, and the Las Vegas AAA’s are rebranding and moving to a new park in 2019….but what will happen to poor Cosmo???
Cosmo, a fan favorite of all ages, returned to Earth and completed his 17th season as the the Mascot for the Las Vegas 51s (2001-17). Cosmo is a survivor of a spaceship crash who spent time at “Area 51” and was a baseball phenom on his home planet of Koufaxia.
…
Cosmo loves hot dogs, Cracker Jack and popcorn. His favorite music includes Elton John’s “Rocket Man,” David Bowie’s “Ziggy Stardust,” Styx’s “Mr. Roboto,” and the Space Jazz Trio. His favorite movies and TV shows include Men in Black (I , II & III), all episodes of the Star Wars saga, Lost in Space and Star Trek.

As you can see, Cosmo is really about Space and Spacey things and spent time at Area 51.
Will Cosmo stick with the Las Vegas Aviators?
What if they become the Las Vegas Desert Tarantulas or Coffee Hounds or Banana Dragons or some other stupid “modern” AAA name? Will Cosmo just stick around and become a Banana Dragon mascot?
