The Tupelo Grays

From, yes, Elvis Presley Park, the Tupelo Grays were originally called the Kings in honor of their favorite son. Once I saw Low's Memphis Kings set, however (which aptly honored another King, Dr. Martin Luther Jr., who worked and was assassinated there), I had to make a switch. The Grays set was inspired by a logo I found over on Sportslogos, which I adapted for the small Mississippi city—I felt that it worked decently well, and liked the idea of getting a gray fox into the logo mix.
