[edit] History
The New Orleans Night was an Arena Football League team that competed in the 1991 and 1992 seasons based in New Orleans, Louisiana.
They played their home games at the massive Louisiana Superdome, also home of the NFL New Orleans Saints, which obviously had to be modified considerably to cut the playing surface and fan seating down to a size appropriate to the Arena game. The team was disbanded after a winless 1992 season.
Team colors were Midnight Blue, Sunset Orange, and Moonlight White.
This team is probably best remembered for its outlandish Zubaz designed uniform. [1]
