While both Toronto and Seattle got their AL franchises in 1977, they celebrate milestone years differently.

The Blue Jays celebrate milestone *seasons*: 25th in 2001, 30th in 2006, 40th in 2016.

The Mariners celebrate *anniversaries*: 25th in 2002, 30th in 2007, 35th in 2012, 40th in 2017.
The #BlueJays have begun to announce plans for the club's 50th season, including an anniversary patch that'll be worn on jersey sleeves/hats throughout the season.

The giveaways this season will also contain "a mix of retro and current promotions" to be unveiled on Feb 2nd

Fairly sure it’s unintentional, but the end date on this mug being sold by the Smithsonian does make it sound a little like they’re saying America dies in 2026…
