Classic Team Logo of The Day

09 Sep

Logo of an old defunct professional football team that played in the early days of the National Football League, the Providence Steam Roller. After an early life as an independent “barnstorming” team, they were members of the NFL from 1925 until 1931, winning the league championship in 1928. They established a number of “firsts” as a pro football team – they were the only team in history to play their home games in a bicycle racing venue (called the Cycledrome), once played a series of 4 games in a 6 day stretch, and hosted the first night game in NFL history, hosting the Chicago Cardinals under hastily installed floodlights in 1929.
