XFL Stops
ESPN reports the XFL, which included the Seattle Dragons will suspend operations. Unlike other upstart football leagues, the XFL seemed to get some traction, successfully promoting itself as a less expensive alternative to the NFL. The league also started it's season right after the Super Bowl when football appetites were high.
We had season tickets to the Dragons but were only able to go to one game. We gave away our tickets to the second home game as we were out of town.
The season was cancelled after 5 games because of the outbreak of the Corona Virus. At the time, it was thought that the league would be able to meet for a second season.
Whether the league would have made it without the outbreak may never be known.
