Denver Avalanche
The Denver Avalanche were a short-lived franchise that played two seasons in the Major Indoor Soccer League between 1980 and 1982. The Avalanche faced a tough landscape in Denver in that era, competing head-to-head with the NBA’s Denver Nuggets and NHL’s Colorado Rockies for fans, sponsors and decent dates at McNichols Arena during the winter time. The team entered bankruptcy and folded after two seasons.
