Memphis Pharaohs
March 4, 2013
The Memphis Pharaohs were a two-year entry in the Arena Football League. They were the first pro sports franchise to play in the infamous Pyramid Arena, a $62 million dollar white whale project that lasted a mere 15 years after its opening. The Pharaohs signed cult football legend Marcus Dupree, though he never played a down, and endured an 0-14 season before leaving town in 1996.
