28 totally real baseball teams cottagers should cheer for

The Chattanooga Lookouts from Chattanooga, Tennessee, a.k.a the official team of I Spy enthusiasts, road-tripping families, and Friday-night-cottage-commute-on-a-stop-and-go-highway warriors.

Frankly, it seems like a miracle that the Fond Du Lac Dock Spiders of Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin find other teams that are actually willing to take the field against them. We wouldn't go anywhere near them *shudder*.

For the cottager that somehow knows the answer to ever Trivial Pursuit question, we suggest the Orem Owlz of Orem, Utah.

Boaters, this one is for you. If you've found your sea legs, the Stockton Ports of Stockton, California are the team you should toss a line to.

Frequent cottage goers will probably be familiar with the ever-present woodpecker, but hey, maybe this team will help woodpeckers tippy-tap their way into your heart.

The flicker of fireflies on a warm evening is a hallmark of summer, isn't it? The Columbia Fireflies, out of Columbia, South Carolina, are perfect for the nostalgia-lover in your life.

Shout out to all our coastal cottagers and their access to fresh seafood—we've got a team for you. The Biloxi Shuckers of Biloxi, Mississippi are the perfect team to rep. Pros: you can display your love of seafood proudly. Cons: you have to learn how to spell Mississippi.

Any group of people that willingly spend hours in the car on a weekly basis for 48 hours of relaxation deserves a team dedicated to their efforts. Hailing from North Little Rock, Arkansas, the Arkansas Travelers get you, cottagers.

Forget a hot dog, grab an ear of corn while you cheer on the Cedar Rapids Kernels from Cedar Rapids, Iowa. We'll take ours covered in butter and salt.

The Corpus Christi Hooks (based in Corpus Christi, Texas) are the perfect team for any anglers out there.

The Clinton LumberKings are a team based in Clinton, Iowa. Lumber King is probably what your dad calls himself in the winter when he chops a season's worth of firewood for the woodstove in one go.

Get a load of this guy. That's the logo of the Richmond Flying Squirrels from Richmond, Virginia. We have flying squirrels in Canada, but unfortunately, their name is a bit of a lie—they only glide, they don't fly.

We imagine this team might have some fans in the Western provinces. It's hard to imagine a more fearsome opponent than the Fresno Grizzlies of Fresno, California.

This team is a perfect fit for cottagers—loon calls are a signature sound of cottage country, and they represent the Great Lakes. Imagine, loon calls abound from the stands during a home game for the Great Lakes Loons (based in Midland, Michigan). The cheers write themselves.

Did you know that grasshoppers can jump 20 times the length of their body? Wowie. That sounds like a strong insect to throw your support behind. The Greensboro Grasshoppers of Greensboro, North Carolina agree.

The Hagerstown Suns of Hagerstown, Maryland know what's up. When you live in a country where winter occupies six months of the year like we do, you learn to appreciate the sun.

Finally—a team that understands the allure of a good campfire. The Rocky Mountain Vibes are the team for any outdoor enthusiast. Not to mention, their mascot is a s'more.

Do you know what hops are a key ingredient? Beer. Do you know what cottagers like to drink? Beer. Need we say more for the Hillsboro Hops of Hillsboro, Oregon?

If you're more inclined to a generic bear team rather than the fierce grizzly, here we have the Iowa Cubs of Des Moines, Iowa. We're all about giving you options, people.

Every cottager has a crazy weather story, and we all know the "wow" feeling when lightning strikes and illuminates the entire sky. If you spend a lot of time looking upward, the Omaha Storm Chasers from Papillion, Nebraska are the perfect team for you.

Cottagers will be the first to tell you how important bees are to our ecosystem. Pollinator-friendly gardens help us all, folks. Cheer for nature's bees and the Salt Lake Bees of Salt Lake City, Utah!

Natural shorelines are happy shorelines! And happy shorelines are home to aquatic birds. If you've ditched your lawn in favour of the natural look, the Delmarva Shorebirds of Salisbury, Maryland are the team for you.

You thought we had all the bears covered? Ha. Think again. The West Virginia Black Bears of Granville, West Virginia round out our bear trio.

The lone Canadian team on the list, the Vancouver Canadians are affiliated with Canada's team, the Toronto Blue Jays. If that's not enough to sway you, this team might be fit for the cottager who wants to stay neutral and doesn't want to declare their love of say, bees, or perhaps grizzly bears.

For the person who swore they felt something bigger than a fish brush their foot that one time in 1987, look no further than the Vermont Lake Monsters of Burlington, Vermont.

The Down East Wood Ducks of Kinston, North Carolina round out our aquatic bird trio. Conveniently, your phone already autocorrects to "duck" if the team is losing.

The mighty forces of the Great Lakes are at work again in Comstock Park, Michigan. We hear the stadium is the ideal place to do the wave.

Canada exports more cold water shrimp than anywhere else in the world. Move over, beavers, Canadians have found a new animal to align ourselves with.
