76ers D-League team to wear R2-D2 jerseys

Minor league sports teams are known to have interesting themed jerseys. Sometimes they're horrible and other times they're awesome. This time, they're amazing.

The 76ers D-League team, the Delaware 87ers, are going to run around looking like a bunch of R2-D2s for the team's Star Wars night on Friday! That jersey could easily be used as a Halloween costume.

Another great part of this is that after the game, the jerseys will be auctioned off to benefit a children's hospital. Here's more information about the Star Wars night from the 87ers' site:

Upon entry, the first 1,500 people will receive a commemorative Darth Vader poster. Star Wars characters from local performance groups Garrison Carida (501st Legion) and Ghost Base (Rebel Legion) will fill the arena, and Jedi Master Yoda will serve as the public address announcer. All fans are encouraged to dress up as Star Wars characters and participate in a costume parade for the chance to win prizes.
